Casa Dragones Tequila Blanco

Casa Dragones CEO and co-founder Bertha González Nieves holds the distinction of being the first female Maestra Tequilera to be certified by the Academia Mexicana de Catadores de Tequila (Mexican Academy of Tequila Tasters). Casa Dragones’ agave fields are located within the Eje Volcánico Transversal (Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt) in Tequila, Jalisco, a chain that contains both active and inactive volcanoes across Mexico, which creates a distinctive terroir ideal for agave plants. 100% Agave Azul Tequiliana Weber (Blue Weber agave), the plants are harvested at peak maturity around 7 years old. Harvest occurs by hand, based on the ripeness and sweetness of the heart of the piña, which allows each vintage to be unique in complexity and subtlety. This blanco is crisp and smooth, with delicate notes of mango and coconut amidst a fruity palate. Hints of vanilla and coconut lead into a long, lightly spiced finish. Exceptional as a sipping tequila or sure to elevate any cocktail.
