TAPATIO TEQUILA BLANCO 1 LITER

Tapatio Blanco Tequila 1L is a traditional Mexican blanco tequila made from 100% estate‑grown Blue Weber agave in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico by the Camarena family’s La Alteña distillery. It’s a cult‑favorite expression that showcases classic tequila craftsmanship and terroir‑driven character.

Description

Tapatio Blanco is clear and unaged, with a bright, clean appearance. After distillation it is typically rested in stainless steel for a period (often a few months) to allow the flavors to integrate before bottling.
