Puntagave Blanco Tequila
Puntagave Blanco Tequila is the brand's Artisanal-line blanco: 100% Blue Weber agave from the highlands of Jalisco, deliberately undercooked to keep more agave flavor, twice distilled in copper pot stills, and bottled with no additives at 41% ABV (82 proof) in a 750mL bottle. Small 500-liter batches, each tuned by the founders' team over dozens of production tweaks — a floral, honeyed blanco built for purists. Order online from Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Undercooked on Purpose
Most tequila distilleries cook agave to maximize sugar. Puntagave's Artisanal blanco goes the other way: the agave is deliberately undercooked, sacrificing yield to preserve raw agave character — a technique refined across more than 50 production tweaks by co-founder Guillermo Barroso's team. The result is a blanco that tastes like the highlands themselves: wild, floral, and unmistakably agave. Shop the Puntagave collection and the store's full tequila range.
Tasting Notes
Wild agave aromas up front with floral lift, a tingling palate, and a long spicy finish resolving into honeyed fig. Clean and additive-free, with the highland agave's brightness front and center.
How to Enjoy
Sip neat or in a proper blanco tasting flight — this is a connoisseur's blanco. In cocktails, it elevates anything where the tequila is the star: a Tommy's margarita with agave nectar, or a clean Ranch Water.
