Deleon Blanco Tequila
Deleon Blanco Tequila is a 750mL unaged blanco bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), made from 100% highland blue Weber agave hand-selected at peak ripeness in the Los Altos region of Jalisco, Mexico. The agave is slowly roasted in traditional clay ovens, double-distilled, and cut to the Corazon — the heart of the spirit — giving a crystal-clear blanco with unusual softness for the category. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

The House Blanco, Built on the Corazon
DeLeon's blanco — sold in earlier years as Platinum — is where the house's French-winemaking mindset starts: pristine highland agave, a slow clay-oven roast, and a distiller's cut that keeps only the heart of the run. The result is a blanco made to be smooth first, with the agave's citrus and spice carried on a vanilla-soft finish. Explore the house on the Deleon vendor page, or browse our spirits collection.
Tasting Notes
Per the brand: crystal clear, with fresh citrus and crisp agave on the nose; the palate opens with coconut and fresh citrus with a hint of lime; the finish brings warm brown spice and vanilla.
How to Enjoy
A classic Margarita is the house serve, and its softness also suits a chilled shot or a neat pour for blanco purists. More blancos are in our spirits collection.
