Description
This blanco is the purest expression of the legendary El Pandillo distillery, designed for those who truly appreciate the raw beauty of agave. By using mineral-rich water drawn from a deep well 150 meters underground, master distiller Felipe Camarena creates a spirit with a heavy, mountainous character that stands out from more delicate profiles.1 Every sip reveals the heritage of the Camarena family, utilizing a heritage yeast strain over eighty years old and a custom-engineered crushing process to preserve the most intricate earthy notes.2 It is an uncompromising and savory experience that serves as the gold standard for what a highland tequila should be.
Tasting Notes
-
Nose: Freshly steamed agave and bright lime zest mixed with a distinct scent of wet stones and white pepper.
-
Flavor: A surprising initial sweetness of caramelized agave and tropical fruit that quickly moves into a bold, peppery earthiness with a round, "chewy" texture.
-
Finish: Crisp and bracingly dry with a cooling hint of mint and a final echo of stony minerals.
