PM Spirits Project Blanco Tequila 80 Proof
Blanco Tequila | 750mL | 40% ABV (80 proof) | Single-Horno Batch — PM Spirits Project Blanco Tequila is a curated importer's bottling made with Jose Luis Gutierrez and distilled by Master Distiller Juan Antonio Gonzalez at Tequila Group Mexico (NOM 1468) in Arandas, Los Altos, Jalisco. Estate-grown Blue Weber agave (average 6 years, 35 Brix) is brick-oven cooked 40 hours, roller-mill extracted, fermented with proprietary yeast, and twice distilled in a 3,500L copper pot still — then rested 15 days in bourbon casks and reduced to 80 proof with reverse-osmosis water. Additive-free, verified by Tequila Matchmaker. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
PM Spirits is a small importer known for geeky, transparent spirits — and this "Project" bottling is their own collaboration, bottled as a single-oven (single horno) batch. The 15-day bourbon-cask rest is legal within the blanco class and adds a whisper of roundness without touching the category's bright agave punch. For blanco drinkers who read back labels, this one checks every box: NOM, distillery, agave age, cook, still, and proof.
Tasting notes
Expect bright Los Altos agave — citrus, white pepper, and sweet cooked agave — with a soft, rounded edge from the brief bourbon-cask rest. Clean, mineral, and built for cocktails that show their base spirit.
