Leyenda de México Blanco with Gold Flakes is an unaged tequila with edible 24-karat gold flakes suspended in the spirit, presented in a clear decanter with a pewter-style medallion. It is bottled at 40% ABV.
Leyenda de México builds its bottles around Mexican heritage and artistry, and this blanco adds a touch of celebration: as the bottle is turned, the gold flakes swirl and shimmer through the clear tequila, making it a show-stopping centrepiece.
The tequila itself is the smooth Leyenda blanco, unaged to keep the bright, fresh character of the agave.
With its heavy glass, metal medallion and floating gold, it is designed for celebrations, from birthdays and weddings to New Year's Eve, and makes a memorable gift.
Give the bottle a gentle turn before pouring to set the gold in motion.
Blanco 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.
Tequila 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.
