Distiller Notes
Produced at Cascahuin in El Arenal, Jalisco. 100% Blue Weber cooked in a traditional clay steam oven. Milled using mechanical roller mill. Fermented in stainless steel. Distilled twice using stainless steel pot stills. Aromas of yellow flowers, sweet potato and white pepper delicately weave together, while the clean palate delivers honeycomb, a hint of cardamom, Meyer lemon, green olive, and generous green notes, from peppers to wheatgrass.
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.
