ASTRAL BLANCO TEQUILA

Crafted by Master Sommelier Richard Betts, this copper pot-distilled, 92-proof blanco tequila is made from Highland organic agaves grown on a single estate. This double-gold medal winner from our San Francisco World Spirits Competition is labor intensive: Mature agaves are slow roasted in traditional hornos and use native yeast fermentation, which takes eight times longer than conventional fermentation.

The nose engages with sweet lime and brown sugar while floral flavors of lilac and creamy magnolia paint the palate. A distinct salinity forms a path through vanilla bean and grapefruit. The finish is luxe: You can taste the terroir.
