Corralejo Blanco is an unaged tequila from Hacienda Corralejo in Peñamo, Guanajuato — 100% Blue Weber agave with a peppery, semi-sweet, lightly floral character.
Corralejo is one of the few tequila producers based in Guanajuato rather than Jalisco, an authorized appellation region whose soil lends a distinct mineral edge to the agave. The Blanco is bottled without oak aging to keep that fresh, peppery agave character front and center, with an oily medium body and a long finish.
It is a robust, flavorful base for margaritas and agave-forward cocktails, and holds up neat or over ice for those who like a spicier blanco.
Tasting Notes
