Distiller Notes
It’s Colorless, bright, clean and transparent with silver reflections. The legs are full bodied with consistent unctuosity. Pure citrus, white flowers, intense cooked agave and legumes. In the aftertaste, there is a presence of citrus blossoms and a hint of pink pepper. Incredibly sweet, with flavorful mineral notes. It is smooth with no bitterness. An extraordinary tequila designed to be sipped for its aromatic richness. Perfect for pairing with fresh cheese and fresh seafood.

Named for the tahona stone used to crush the agave piñas, this blanco has an astonishing purity to it. Pleasingly peppery on the nose and palate, backed by a hint of vanilla, roasted jalapeño emerges midpalate before finishing clean and crisp, with a lemon-zest note. Sip or mix.
Tequila Blanco, or ‘white Tequila’, is also known as Tequila Plata, or ‘silver Tequila’. Its clear color is the result of being bottled immediately after distillation instead of being aged in oak barrels like Tequila Reposado or Anejo. Because of their youth and lack of barrel influence, Blanco Tequilas are thought to offer the purest expression of blue agave available, with notes of citrus and pepper. However, they can also be quite forceful and energetic on the palate without the moderating influence of time and wood.
