Espolòn Blanco is a bold, additive-free tequila from Destiladora San Nicolás in Los Altos, the highlands of Jalisco. Made exclusively from 100% Blue Weber agave slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens, then double distilled in pot and column stills, it is bottled unaged to capture the fresh, peppery essence of true highland tequila. Its striking label stars Ramón the rooster in artwork inspired by José Guadalupe Posada and Mexico's Día de los Muertos traditions. On the nose, fresh agave, lemon zest and delicate florals; the palate is bright and smooth with roasted agave, tropical fruit, vanilla and a touch of spice, ending in a clean, zesty, gently peppery finish. A bartender favourite that makes an exceptional margarita, paloma or ranch water — and stands up nicely neat.
