La Venenosa Raicilla Blanca Espíritus de Jalisco 750ml

La Venenosa Blanca is a raicilla from Cabo Corrientes, Jalisco, made by maestra tabernera Blanca Rodríguez González and bottled at 45.8% ABV.

It is an ensamble of mature farmed rhodacantha and angustifolia agaves.

Blanca Rodríguez is the first woman in charge of a taberna in raicilla production, carrying on the tradition of her father, Don Chalio.

The raicilla shows minerality, ripe fruit and green herbs.

La Venenosa was the first raicilla brand to enter the US market legally, and its labels name each tabernero. Raicilla is Jalisco's own agave spirit, and this Blanca is a fine introduction to it.
