{"product_id":"el-mayor-tequila-blanco-750ml","title":"El Mayor Tequila Blanco 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eEl Mayor Blanco is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila from the Gonzalez family's Destiladora Gonzalez Lux in Arandas, Jalisco, made from estate-grown, hand-harvested mature agave and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEl Mayor, meaning the greatest, was born in 1998 when Luxco founder Paul Lux turned to one of Mexico's most reputable tequila-distilling families, the Gonzalez family, who have been making handcrafted tequila in Jalisco for more than 150 years. It is made at their distillery just outside Arandas in the highlands of Jalisco, where Paul and Graciela Gonzalez represent the fourth generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe estate-grown agave is hand-harvested at maturity, cooked in autoclaves and shredded with a mill, then gently pressed and distilled. The Blanco is bottled unaged to showcase the agave. It earned Gold Medals at the 2024 ASCOT Awards and SIP Awards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose is clean and floral, with fresh agave, citrus blossom, tropical fruit, light vanilla and a spicy undertone. The body is crisp and light, with a hint of floral and pepper on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or on the rocks, or mix a crisp Margarita, a Paloma or a Ranch Water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlanco tequila is bottled unaged or rested for less than two months, so it shows the agave at its purest: bright, peppery and fresh. It is the classic choice for margaritas and palomas, and a good blanco is just as rewarding sipped neat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTequila can only be made from blue Weber agave in five designated Mexican states, chiefly Jalisco, and the finest bottlings are made from 100% agave. Sipping tequila is best enjoyed from a narrow-rimmed glass that concentrates the aromas, at room temperature and without salt or lime, so the character of the agave and the barrel can come through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh agave, citrus blossom, floral, light vanilla.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crisp, light, floral.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hint of pepper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Destiladora Gonzalez Lux, Arandas, Jalisco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% blue Weber, estate grown, hand harvested\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autoclave cooked, mill shredded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blanco tequila\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMix a Margarita or a Paloma, or sip it on the rocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho makes El Mayor?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Gonzalez family at their distillery near Arandas, Jalisco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does El Mayor mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe greatest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does it taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClean and floral, with citrus blossom and a hint of pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tequila\"\u003eTequila collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"El Mayor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68068355866933,"sku":"VWS_200420177","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-32333.webp?v=1793911761","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/el-mayor-tequila-blanco-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
