Tequila Te Amo Blanco is distilled from 100% blue Weber agave grown for eight years on the fertile volcanic soil of the Amatitán Valley in Jalisco, bottled at 40% ABV in a 1-litre ceramic bottle.
Its delicate flavours, balanced aroma and medium body give Te Amo a perfect balance from nose to mouth, a classic expression of lowland Amatitán agave.
The nose is sweet, fully confirming the tone of cooked agave, with herbal, floral and spicy tones. The palate brings delicate cooked agave and caramel with herbal and citrus notes of rosemary, lemon and grapefruit.
Its white ceramic bottle with gold agave artwork makes it a striking gift.
Sip it neat, or use it in a fresh margarita or Paloma.
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.
Tequila must be made from blue Weber agave grown in designated areas of Mexico, chiefly Jalisco; 100% agave tequilas use no other sugars in fermentation.
Amatitán, in the lowland Tequila Valley next to the town of Tequila, is one of the historic heartlands of tequila making, known for earthy, herbal and peppery agave.
A blanco is bottled unaged or rested only briefly, so the flavour of the agave comes through at its freshest.
