El Tequileno Still Cask Strength Blanco 750 ML

El Tequileno Still Cask Strength Blanco comes from El Tequileno, a family-run distillery in Los Altos, Jalisco that has made tequila since the 1960s and is known among enthusiasts for skipping the water-down step most brands use before bottling. Bottled at still or cask strength means it goes into the bottle much closer to the proof it comes off the still at, well above the standard 40% ABV most blancos are cut to. That extra proof brings the raw agave character forward hard — cooked agave, black pepper, and citrus peel, with more heat and intensity than a standard-strength blanco.

How to drink El Tequileno Still Cask Strength Blanco

Take it neat in small pours, not shots — the higher proof means it needs sipping, not slamming. A splash of water opens the agave further if the alcohol feels too sharp at first.
