Tequila Espacial Blanco

Espacial Blanco is a highland tequila from a fifth-generation family of tequileros in Arandas, Jalisco, produced at NOM 1414 (some batches have also been bottled at NOM 1465) in the southern Los Altos region. It is made from mature 100% blue Weber agave grown in the highlands and follows a traditional process: the piñas are cooked in stone and brick ovens, crushed on a roller mill, and fermented open-air in stainless steel tanks with champagne yeast and no fibers in the wash, with classical music played in the fermentation room, a practice several Arandas producers swear by. The juice is distilled twice in copper pot stills and proofed with deep well water to 40% ABV, and it is unaged, bottled as a clean expression of highland agave. Tequila Matchmaker's community tags lean toward raw and cooked agave, black pepper, citrus and herbal notes on the nose, with cooked agave, black pepper, earth and vegetal flavors on the palate; one reviewer also picks up vanilla and a long, sweet finish. Highland brick-oven blancos like this are built for margaritas and palomas but have enough agave weight to sip.
