The Estate, Unaged and Undisguised
A blanco is where an estate tequila cannot hide, and Solento leans into that: the same seven-year organic agave and slow brick-oven cook as its aged siblings, given only a short stainless-steel rest to settle before bottling. Founded in 2019 by Taylor Steele with the tequila-making Montes family, the brand takes its name from the Spanish for "slow sun."

Tasting Notes
From the producer: vanilla and lemon tree blossom on the aroma; Meyer lemon and Tahitian vanilla on a smooth, silky palate; a light, clean finish with a hint of lemon.
How to Enjoy
Neat at room temperature to taste the estate agave, or in a Margarita or Paloma built on fresh citrus — the lemon-blossom character is made for both.
