Pasote Blanco Tequila
Pasote Blanco is a purist's tequila, born from a deep respect for the agave plant and the sun-drenched highlands of San Julian, Jalisco. Crafted at Tequila El Tepozan under NOM 1584, this blanco captures the soul of the blue agave in its most honest, unaged form.
Produced in the Los Altos region of Jalisco, Pasote draws on the mineral-rich red clay soils that define highland-grown agave character. The piñas are roasted to coax out their full herbaceous complexity before distillation, resulting in a blanco that is bold, expressive, and true to its terroir.
- Nose: Ripe, roasted agave leads the way, with herbaceous depth and fragrant undertones of fresh herbs and bright citrus fruits.
- Palate: Clean and vivid, with an exquisitely bright mouthfeel. Savory, intense agave anchors the mid-palate alongside flavors of crisp, juicy pineapple.
- Finish: Long and character-driven, with robust yet beautifully balanced agave that coats the mouth in a lingering, satisfying close.
Pasote Blanco shines in a classic Margarita, where its agave-forward intensity and citrus brightness hold their own against lime and orange liqueur. It is equally at home in a Paloma, where its herbal backbone plays beautifully against grapefruit soda.
Best enjoyed neat or on the rocks to fully appreciate its complexity. Pasote Blanco is a highland tequila made from blue agave in San Julian, Jalisco, Mexico.
