A brilliantly refreshing Blanco Tequila that more than "just" a pretty mixer.
Destiladora San Nicolas is located in Los Altos — the Highlands of Jalisco Mexico. The deep red, volcanic soil and high altitude has long been considered the best climate for producing great Blue agave. They were founded in 1996, growing quickly by producing their own San Nicolas brand of Tequilas. In 2008 they were purchased by the Campari Group. Now, nearly all production goes into Cabo Wabo and their own El Espolòn line of Tequilas.
El Espolòn says that their Tequila Blanco is "For Shaking," as in making cocktails. And they’re right. But that sells this quality Blanco short. This is the Spirit upon which the entire line of El Espolòn Tequilas is built. That means it’s 100% Weber Blue agave from Jalisco, Mexico, meticulously crafted in the traditional manner. Stand-out qualities include a soft, almost velvet mouth-feel and almost floral profile. So while it is a superior cocktail-making base, it is also a neat sipping Blanco all on its own.
Appearance / Color
Platinum Clear
Nose / Aroma / Smell
The aroma is lightly floral with distant notes of pineapple, guava, lemon zest, and white pepper.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
The palate is soft and wet with a flavor profile that builds on the aromas with added herbal and earthiness.
Finish
The finish is clean and fresh with a hit of heat.
