From NOM 1459 in Amatitán, Jalisco, it carries the house's agave character at its clearest: the foundation every reposado, añejo and extra añejo in the family is built on.

The Unaged Foundation
Everything Romantico does in oak starts here: clean, agave-forward spirit from the same Amatitán distillery that produces the line's celebrated reposado and añejo. Blanco is the cocktail workhorse and the transparency test — nothing to hide behind. Taste the baseline before working up the line in our tequila collection, or see everything from Romantico.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Bright cooked agave with citrus zest. Palate: Clean agave sweetness, herbal lift, a peppery snap. Finish: Crisp and warming.
How to Enjoy
The definitive margarita and Paloma base — blanco's punch is what cocktails are built around. Neat with a lime wedge for the purists.
