Cimarron Blanco Tequila

Cimarrón is the bartender's secret — Enrique Fonseca's value tequila from the same La Tequileña distillery that makes Fuenteseca and Cierto, additive-free, at a price that lets a bar pour it by the case. Fonseca is a fourth-generation agavero, one of the largest independent agave growers in Jalisco, and his distillery, NOM 1146, in the town of Tequila is where Jake Lustig's ArteNOM 1146 and the decades-old Fuenteseca releases come from. Cimarrón — the wild one — is 100% blue Weber agave from Fonseca's own highland and valley estates, slow-cooked in low-pressure ovens, fermented, distilled in Fonseca's combination of pot and column stills, and bottled unaged at 40% ABV in the plain, honest bottle that tells you where the money went. Expect a nose of cooked agave, citrus, and green pepper with a mineral note, opening into a clean, bright, medium-bodied palate of agave, lime, and white pepper with a crisp, dry finish. Honest note: this is one of the best-value additive-free blancos in America — the tequila enthusiasts recommend when someone asks what to put in the well — and if you want to taste what the Cierto price buys, pour them side by side. For a Margarita, a Paloma, a Ranch Water, or the whole party. Fonseca's wild one.
