Fiero Habanero is a blanco tequila naturally infused with fresh, vine-ripened habanero peppers from local Jalisco farmers markets, additive free and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Fiero is made by Hotaling & Co. with Casa Don Roberto, and its label reads distilled in La Purisima, the same way since 1924, and el mundo es de los valientes: the world belongs to the brave. It is made for courageous heat seekers who never shy away from a challenge.
The process starts with blanco tequila and fresh habanero peppers, never dried or roasted, which are carefully selected, seeded and chopped by hand. The peppers infuse the tequila for about three days before final filtering, delivering a vibrant, flavor-packed punch of habanero, a pepper rated at roughly 100,000 to 350,000 Scoville heat units.
Expect bright habanero fruit and cooked agave on the nose, then intense, building heat on the palate balanced by sweet agave and citrus, and a long, fiery finish.
Fiero Habanero is designed to be the secret spicy centerpiece of your favorite tequila cocktail. Use a measure in a spicy Margarita with fresh lime and agave syrup, a Paloma with grapefruit soda and a salted rim, or a Bloody Maria with tomato juice and lime. A little goes a long way, so try splitting it half and half with regular blanco tequila. It also brings real fire to a Michelada or a pineapple and lime cooler. Pair it with tacos al pastor, grilled shrimp, mango salsa or guacamole. For heat seekers, hot sauce fans and anyone who loves a challenge, it is a bold gift and a memorable bottle to share.
