Caballito Cerrero 46 Azul Blanco – A Testament to Traditional Tequila Craftsmanship

Caballito Cerrero 46 Azul Blanco is an exceptional destilado de agave that honors the rich heritage of traditional tequila production. Crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave (Agave tequilana), this spirit is produced in Amatitán, Jalisco, Mexico, by a family-owned distillery dedicated to preserving authentic methods since 1950.

Tasting Notes:

• Aroma: An inviting bouquet of cooked agave, complemented by fresh herbal notes, citrus zest, and subtle hints of white pepper and minerality.
• Palate: A harmonious blend of sweet roasted agave flavors, bright lime and grapefruit accents, soft herbal undertones, and a slight salinity that adds depth and character. The higher ABV (46%) brings a pleasant warmth without overpowering the delicate flavors.
• Finish: Long and smooth, leaving a lasting impression of agave sweetness intertwined with peppery spice and a whisper of smoke. The minerality lingers, creating a clean, crisp finish.

This spirit is produced using time-honored techniques, including cooking the agave in brick steam ovens, milling with a traditional double-pass mill, fermenting in open stainless steel tanks with a combination of wild and proprietary yeast, and distilling in both stainless steel and copper stills. These methods contribute to its rich and authentic flavor profile.

Due to its adherence to traditional practices, Caballito Cerrero 46 Azul Blanco is labeled as a destilado de agave rather than tequila, underscoring the brand’s commitment to authenticity and quality.

Caballito Cerrero 46 Azul Blanco is a masterful representation of traditional tequila craftsmanship. Its unadulterated flavor profile and artisanal production methods make it a must-try for aficionados seeking a true expression of Jalisco’s tequila heritage. Perfect for sipping neat, it rewards with every nuanced layer.
