Tapatio Blanco Tequila 110 Proof 1L
55% ABV (110 proof) | 1L | Blanco, high proof | NOM 1139, La Alteña, Arandas, Los Altos — the Tapatio Blanco 110 Proof ("B110") is the high-octane sibling of the classic Tapatio Blanco: the same La Alteña-distilled, brick-oven-and-tahona tequila from Arandas in Los Altos de Jalisco, bottled at 55% ABV — much closer to distillation strength — in a full 1L bottle. For agave purists who want the spirit as the distiller intended — available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
La Alteña is the Camarena family distillery (NOM 1139), one of the most respected names in Los Altos: brick ovens, a working tahona wheel alongside roller mills, and copper pot stills. Standard Tapatio Blanco is bottled at 80 proof; the 110-proof "B110" keeps far more of the distillate's intensity — the agave equivalent of a barrel-proof bourbon. Among high-proof blancos, it is a bartender favorite: the extra proof carries cocktails and stands up neat.
Tasting notes
Release and retailer notes describe a bold, earthy blanco: roasted agave and black pepper, citrus peel and minerals, with the warm, oily intensity of 110 proof. The tahona and copper-pot character shows as a round, almost sweet agave core beneath the heat. At 55% ABV, a splash of water or a single cube opens it considerably. No official distillery tasting notes were published for the 110 — describe from the B110 consensus only.
