Blue Agave in Its Purest Form
Before oak enters the picture, there is the blanco: agave from Los Valles cooked in stone and brick ovens, crushed by roller mill, fermented in stainless, and double-distilled in stainless pot stills. Nothing added, nothing aged — just the distillate as NOM 1477 makes it. Community tasters pick up vegetal, banana, raw agave, orange peel, and cooked-agave aromas with buttery, peppery notes.

Tasting Notes
Clear and agave-forward: vegetal and citrus-peel notes over cooked agave, with buttery texture, a whisper of caramel and vanilla, and light pepper and cinnamon spice.
How to Enjoy
The purist's pour — sip it neat to taste the distillery's hand, or build the brightest margarita in the lineup. Blanco is also the bartender's choice for a proper ranch water.
