Misionero Blanco Tequila
Misionero Blanco Tequila is an 80-proof (40% ABV), 750mL blanco made from 100% Weber blue agave, bottled clean to show the pure distillate. It is distilled at NOM 1450 in Los Valles, Jalisco, via stone/brick-oven roasting, roller-mill extraction, deep-well water, stainless-steel fermentation, and double distillation in copper pot stills — a traditional production chain from a brand built on sustainable land stewardship. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Clean Agave, Nothing to Hide Behind
A blanco is tequila with nowhere to hide — no oak, no color, just the distillate — and Misionero's shows bright, fresh agave with citrus zest, a hint of mint, and light herbal notes. The Los Valles distillate at NOM 1450 comes through crisp and clean: light pepper, gentle sweetness underneath, and a soft citrus-agave finish with no burn. Retailers call it out as a natural for Margaritas, Palomas, and Tequila Sodas, and it holds its own neat for agave purists. Compare it with other blanco tequilas to taste what traditional copper-pot distillation does for the category.
Tasting Notes
Bright fresh agave, citrus zest, mint, and light herbal/vegetal notes on the nose; a crisp, clean entry with light pepper and gentle sweetness; a light, smooth, refreshing finish of soft citrus and agave.
How to Enjoy
The classic cocktail blanco: build a Margarita or Paloma with fresh lime and quality salt, or keep it simple with a Tequila Soda and lime. Neat pours reward agave lovers — try it alongside the Misionero Reposado to taste what oak adds.
