La Malinche Blanco Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

Crystal clear and unadorned — La Malinche Blanco has nothing to hide behind. The aroma of cooked agave meets mint and citrus, and every sip reminds you that this tequila has been through only two distillations and nothing else. Clean and direct, from bottle to glass.

Expert Description

La Malinche Blanco is a Mexican Blanco Tequila from Jalisco, made from 100% blue agave and bottled at 38%. The bottle comes from Tequilas del Señor, founded in 1943 by Don Cesar García in the town of Tequila, and is distilled no more than twice from the cooked, pressed agave juice — a simpler process than the Gold expression, giving the tequila a rawer, more direct agave character.
