Peligroso

Craftsmanship and Distillation

Peligroso is handcrafted using 100% Blue Weber agave, grown in the mineral-rich volcanic soils of the Highlands of Jalisco. The brand honors traditional methods of tequila-making while embracing innovation. The piñas (agave hearts) are slow-roasted in brick ovens and fermented naturally before being double distilled in small copper pot stills. This process ensures clarity, depth, and character in every drop. Peligroso Tequila is bottled at 84 proof—higher than the industry standard—delivering a bolder expression without sacrificing smoothness.

Aroma & Bouquet

Each expression of Peligroso—whether it’s Blanco, Reposado, or Añejo—offers a dynamic aromatic profile. Expect notes of cooked agave layered with hints of citrus, spice, and toasted oak. The Blanco teases the senses with raw agave and fresh green pepper. The Reposado introduces a balance of vanilla, caramel, and mild smoke, while the Añejo offers a more complex bouquet with dried fruit, cinnamon, and dark chocolate nuances.

Smooth & Finish

Despite its elevated proof, Peligroso delivers a remarkably smooth and balanced sip. The Blanco is crisp and vibrant with a peppery finish, ideal for cocktails or neat sipping. Reposado showcases a velvety mouthfeel and a warm, slightly oaky conclusion. Añejo, aged for over a year in American oak barrels, is rich and lingering with deep flavors that appeal to seasoned tequila connoisseurs.
