Espolon Blanco

Espolon Blanco represents the pure expression of blue agave, crafted with precision and respect for traditional tequila-making methods. This crystal-clear spirit embodies the vibrant culture and artistry of Mexico, making it a standout choice for both tequila enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

Production Process

Espolon Blanco is produced in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, using 100% Blue Weber Agave. The agave plants are harvested at peak maturity (8-10 years) and slowly cooked in modern autoclaves. After crushing, the juice undergoes fermentation with proprietary yeast strains, followed by double distillation in pot stills. The result is a clean, crisp tequila that maintains the true character of the agave.

The finish is smooth and refreshing, with lingering notes of agave and mild pepper.

Territory

Produced in Los Altos (the Highlands) of Jalisco, Mexico, where the region's red clay soil and high altitude create ideal conditions for growing blue agave. The mineral-rich earth contributes to the tequila's distinct character and smooth finish.
