The Story
Tlahualil takes its name and its bottle from the Tlahualiles — the feathered dancers of Sahuayo’s famous festival in honor of Santiago Apóstol, in the Ciénega region of Michoacán near Lake Chapala. The Mascara blanco is the line in its purest form: bright, silver-clear blue agave spirit with no barrel between the still and the glass. It is the starting point of a collection that continues through the reposado and añejo Mascara expressions, all poured from the same sculpted bottle.
Tasting Notes
Color & aroma: Bright, luminous and transparent, with delicate tones of cooked agave, milk caramel and preserved fruits such as cherry and pear, plus hints of grapefruit and cinnamon. Palate: Full-bodied for a blanco, silver-bright and clean, with sweet agave up front. Finish: Fresh and warming, with fruit and gentle spice.
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat to taste the Michoacán agave, or pour it into a Margarita or Paloma. The mask bottle earns its place on the back bar long after the last pour.
