Cazcanes Tequila Blanco No. 9 (50%)

Cazcanes No. 9 Blanco is a high-proof blanco tequila from the Amatitán area of Jalisco, Mexico, made from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the Los Valles region. The agave piñas are cooked in a low-pressure autoclave, extracted with a four-pass roller mill, fermented in stainless steel vats and double-distilled in stainless steel with copper coils before resting one to three months. It is additive-free and certified organic, bottled at 50% ABV. The nose brings cooked agave sweetness with floral notes, wet stone, cinnamon, cloves, salted toffee, baked pineapple, grapefruit and green cardamom. The palate is clean yet earthy, with bold sweet agave, black pepper, lime zest, anise and a mineral edge. The finish is long and vibrant, with agave intensity, pepper, anise, citrus zest and minerality.
