Tanteo Chipotle Tequila

Tanteo Chipotle is the smoky one — 100% agave blanco macerated with chipotles, which are roasted, smoked jalapeños, giving it a distinct orange hue and a smoke that reads like mezcal without the mezcal. Tanteo launched in 2007 as the first pepper-infused tequila and is made in Juanacatlán, in the hills between the highlands and the valley, at a distillery owned and operated by a cooperative of eighty-five farming families who get a fair price for their agave; every bottle is distilled, infused, and bottled by hand. The Chipotle is 100% blue Weber agave, traditionally cooked, open-air fermented, small-batch distilled, then macerated with fresh, locally sourced chipotle peppers, and bottled at 40% ABV. Drinkhacker: chipotle is roasted jalapeño with a distinctly smoky flavor, and this tequila carries a significant orange tint from it. Expect a nose of smoke, dried chile, and cooked agave, opening into a warm, medium-heat palate of smoked pepper, a faint sweetness, and agave with a smoky, lingering finish — less green than the Jalapeño, less brutal than the Habanero. Honest note: the bartender's shortcut to a smoky-spicy Margarita in one bottle — and the best of the three for a Bloody Maria. In a smoky Spicy Margarita, a Bloody Maria, or a Michelada. Tanteo, chipotle.
