Category: Blanco Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Clear color. Boozy, buttery, vegetal aromas of warm agave, melted butter, cream, roasted corn, sugar crystals, rye crackers, and poblano with a creamy, bright, off-dry medium body and a medium-length agave, green grass, drying hay, coconut, pineapple, watermelon rind, white pepper, sage, maple, salinity, and strawberry finish. Rich and textured and shows off the spice of the Tequila with corn and fruit notes; a clean distillate with a lovely transition from aromas to palate.

Silver or Blanco/White Tequilas are clear, with little (no more than 60 days in stainless steel tanks) or no aging. They can be either 100% agave or mixto. Silver Tequilas are used primarily for mixing and blend particularly well into fruit-based drinks.
