Espolon Description
THE ONE THAT STARTS THEM ALL: 100% BLUE WEBER AGAVE.
All of our tequilas start with Espolòn Blanco. Unaged, Blanco is the purest expression of Espolòn tequila. Created in the famed hills of Los Altos, our Blanco tequila is double distilled using column and pot stills to give it a perfectly smooth and balanced taste profile. Great on the rocks, this is the one you’ll love shaking into all the best tequila cocktails.

Ultimate Spirits Challenge: 89 Points
This is a light-bodied and dry tequila that has accents of white flowers, lime peel, vanilla, fresh-turned earth, and green bell pepper. This is a versatile mixer for many cocktails, but excels in sours like the Margarita and Paloma.
