Padre Azul Silver is a super-premium blanco tequila from Jalisco, made from 100% blue Weber agave and bottled at 40% ABV straight after distillation, which gives it a crystal-clear colour and the pure taste of fresh agave.
The blanco is the core of the Padre Azul identity, the father of all its aged expressions. It is made from agaves nurtured for 8 to 10 sun-soaked years and produced at the Tres Mujeres distillery in Jalisco.
The aroma shows fresh agave with subtle vanilla and citrus. The palate is delicate and velvety, with sweet cooked agave and touches of coconut, grapefruit and mint, and the finish is smooth and lingering with fresh herbs and light fruit.
Presented in Padre Azul's striking bottle crowned with a metal skull, it makes a bold gift.
Smooth and mild, it is perfect neat or as the base for cocktails.
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.
