Tequila Corrido Blanco Overproof is a bold, additive-free blanco made from 100% blue agave in small batches and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV), an audacious counterpart to the classic Corrido Blanco.
Corrido's blanco is known for an extended cooking of the agave, about eight hours longer than usual, which breaks down the fibres for a richer flavour, and a 30-day rest that lets the flavours meld. The Overproof brings that character at full strength.
The aroma offers vanilla, caramel, chocolate and fruit touched by cinnamon. The flavour is a bold blend of cooked agave, vibrant citrus, tropical hints and subtle spice, and the finish closes with a minty touch interwoven with hints of rose.
Whether savoured neat or commanding attention in a signature cocktail, it makes a fine gift for tequila lovers.
Sip it neat or use it in a spirit-forward margarita.
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.
