Spotted Bear Agave is an unaged agave spirit distilled from 100% organic blue agave by Spotted Bear Spirits in Whitefish, Montana, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Spotted Bear Spirits is a community-minded craft distillery in downtown Whitefish, across from Depot Park, inspired by Montana's wild places; its lineup reflects the rugged landscape. Its agave is a local, northern take on the traditional flavors of Mexico. Because it is distilled in the United States from agave sourced from Mexico, it is labeled an agave spirit rather than tequila, but it is made to drink like a high-quality blanco.
Bright and clean, this unaged expression captures the vibrant, earthy essence of the agave plant.
The botanical label makes it a fun Montana-made gift.
Agave spirits made outside Mexico cannot be called tequila, which is protected by denomination of origin.
Unaged agave spirits show the plant's character most clearly.
Serve it chilled with a slice of lime.
It makes a crisp Margarita with fresh lime and agave syrup.
Try it in a Paloma with grapefruit soda.
It also shines in a Ranch Water with sparkling water.
A pinch of salt brings out its earthy notes.
Pair it with grilled shrimp tacos.
It is a great souvenir from Montana.
Small-batch distilling keeps each bottle carefully crafted.
Its clean profile is perfect for summer cocktails.
Keep a bottle on hand for game-day Margaritas.
