Inicio Tequila Blanco

Inicio Tequila Blanco is a 100% Blue Weber tequila from the Partida Hermosillo family, three generations of producers whose distillery sits around 25 kilometres from the town of Tequila in Jalisco, the birthplace of the spirit. The owl on the bottle, lechuza in Spanish, nods to wisdom and the Aztec reading of the bird as a watcher of the moon. Production is overseen under the daily inspection of the CRT.
Drawn from agave taken at its ideal ripeness and bottled unaged at 40%, it shows the steam-cooked, unsmoked side of tequila. The aroma is fresh agave and fruity sweetness, while the palate turns gently sweet with citrus fruit, clear cooked-agave notes and a grape-like roundness. The finish is long and elegant. A soft, fruit-forward blanco that keeps the focus on ripe agave rather than any wood.
