Try the Paloma cocktail with Don Julio Blanco tequila - Blog post by Ulrik Bertelsen

Don Julio Blanco - the perfect base

Don Julio Blanco Tequila is a 100% agave tequila offering fresh notes of citrus, grass and light sweetness, all of it playing perfectly against the bitter freshness of grapefruit and lime in a Paloma. The clean, elegant style makes it ideal for cocktails where the tequila needs to shine through.

Tasting profile:
On the nose you meet fresh agave and citrus. The palate is soft and clean, dominated by natural agave sweetness and fresh citrus. The finish is dry with an elegant touch of black pepper and fresh green grass notes, perfectly balanced and refreshing.

Perfect for cocktails or drinking neat:
Don Julio Blanco is ideal for classic cocktails such as the Margarita or the Paloma, but can also be drunk neat, ideally with lemon and salt, for an authentic Mexican tequila experience.
