Tequila Blanco
El Tesoro // Los Altos, Jalisco, Mexico
El Tesoro Blanco Tequila is produced at La Alteña Distillery in the Highlands of Jalisco, founded in 1937 by Don Felipe Camarena. Made with 100% estate-grown blue Weber agave, the piñas are cooked for three days in traditional brick ovens before being crushed by a two-ton tahona stone.
Fermentation and distillation include both the agave juice and fibers, and the tequila is distilled to proof so no water is added. This unaged, additive-free blanco is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).

Tasting Notes
"The aroma is as if you buried your nose in a green smoothie filled with fresh-cut cabbage, romaine lettuce, kiwi, pear, aloe vera while preparing a beurre noisette (brown butter). These aromas follow on the palate where you’ll also find ripe heirloom carrots, Kaffir limes and roasted pear. This is a classic, flavorful tequila--one that is far from the vodka-like tequilas that are on the market."
