Hotel California Blanco Tequila
Hotel California Blanco Tequila is a 40% ABV (80 proof), 750mL unaged blanco from Agaveros y Tequileros Unidos de Los Altos (NOM 1529) in the Jalisco highlands — 100% Blue Weber agave, bottled after distillation, with no additives. It drinks fresh and floral: bright agave and fruit on the nose, sweet floral agave and understated honey on the palate, a cool mouthfeel and a finish longer than most unaged blancos manage. Named for the Hotel California in Todos Santos, made entirely in Los Altos. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

A Blanco With Unusual Poise
Good blanco is agave with nothing to hide behind, and this Los Altos bottling leans into that: floral, fruity and structured, with a finish that suggests more maturity than an unaged spirit has any right to. It anchors our blanco tequila shelf, and the aged siblings live on the Hotel California vendor page.
