Tinta Negra Crystal Blanco is a 100% agave tequila from the Los Valles region of Jalisco, made at NOM 1477 and rested briefly in stainless steel, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Tinta Negra means black ink, and the brand's label carries its motto that the greatest deals are closed with black ink, along with its horse emblem. It is a tequila made for celebrating the moments that matter.
The tequila is produced at NOM 1477 in Jalisco's Los Valles region from 100% agave. After distillation it rests for a couple of weeks in stainless steel tanks, which softens the spirit while keeping its clear color and fresh agave character.
It is fresh and herbaceous on the nose, with grapefruit and green apple. The palate brings semi-sweet cooked agave warmed by black pepper and cloves, and the finish is clean and lightly spicy.
Tinta Negra Crystal Blanco is an easy, versatile tequila. Shake it into a Margarita with fresh lime, build a Paloma with grapefruit soda, or mix it with soda water and a squeeze of lime for a light Ranch Water. Its grapefruit and green apple notes also work well in a Tequila Sour or a spicy Margarita with sliced jalapeño. Sip it chilled or over a large cube with an orange slice, and pair it with fish tacos, grilled chicken, ceviche or fresh salsa verde. The bold black label makes it a stylish gift for someone closing a big deal or celebrating a milestone, and a fine bottle to bring to any gathering.
