40% ABV

The El Tequileño Distillery lies in the heart of Tequila town and this bottle is the spirit of choice in the Batanga Cocktail made famous at La Capilla Bar just down the road. This is a mixto Tequila that is 70% Blue Weber agave and 30% organic piloncillo, a Mexican brown sugar. They are cofermented and distilled. For those of us reared in the era when Tequila went premium and only 100% agave Tequilas were acceptable for drinking, finding a quality mixto Tequila took some getting used to. However this is no Cuervo Gold. This is a high quality distillate that tastes surprisingly agave forward. Dry and clean with some agave sweetness, pepper, and citrusy notes, this is a fantastic option for mixing into cocktails at an incredibly approachable price. Certified additive free, tasty, and ready to change your mind about what a mixto Tequila can be.
