Corralejo Blanco Tequila (750Ml)

Description

Corralejo Blanco is an unaged blanco tequila made from 100% Blue Weber agave. It goes into the bottle soon after distillation, so the fresh agave flavor stays front and center. The US bottle is 40% ABV, or 80 proof.

The tequila comes from Hacienda Corralejo in Pénjamo, Guanajuato. That makes it one of the rare tequilas made outside Jalisco. The agave is slow-cooked in stone and clay ovens. The juice is then distilled twice by the Charentais method, using column stills and copper pot stills.

Pour a glass and you will notice white and pink peppercorns first. Fresh herbs and bright citrus sit right behind them. On the palate, clean agave leads, with cool spearmint and a gentle hint of sweetness. The finish stays crisp and leaves a light peppery tingle.

You can sip it neat or chilled, or pour it over ice with a squeeze of lime. It makes a lively Margarita, Paloma or Ranch Water. It also works well in other classic cocktails. Serve it with ceviche, fish tacos, guacamole or grilled shrimp.

This is a smart pick if you want a true agave taste at a fair price. It is also a fun bottle to share with friends who think every tequila comes from Jalisco.
