My Tasting Notes: I purchased this tequila at the Grad Tequila Bar in Davis, CA for
$3.33 and tasted it out of a snifter. The tequila is clear in color. Penca Azul Blanco
aromas consist of intense earthy aspects followed by moderate-to-intense floral notes.
On the lighter side, this Blanco has moderate aromas of fruit and spice. On the tip of
tongue, this tequila is mellow and has a medium mouth feel. While the tequila has
heavy agave flavor, it is somewhat sweet and has no bitterness. The flavor of this
tequila contains intense flavors of agave followed by moderate-to-intense earthy and
spicy aspects. Deeper flavors of Penca Azul Blanco consist of moderate floral with mild
fruit. Upon finishing this tequila, there is a long duration of flavor and slight numbing
alcohol intensity.
Info on the Back of the Bottle: n/a
Other Info: The neck tag reads: "The quality of great tequila is based on the careful
selection of the best blue Agave plants.
Their long and spiky leaves known as "Penca Azul" protect the heart of the plant,
which weighs more than 80 pounds (40 kg) Their blue color and size reflects the result
of ten years of caring of the noble specie, which grows mainly in the Valley of Tequila
and the highlands of Jalisco.
The careful cooking, fermenting, and distilling of their juices gives birth to a superb
sipping Tequila.
Our family tradition of nearly a hundred years, allows us to share with you this Tequila
Blanco 100% Blue Agave. Our handcrafted small batch production tequila is rested for
30 days before going into the bottle.
This smooth Blanco is full of sweet fruitiness unique to the Agave plant. Our Blanco
Tequila is simply the best.
Tequila Penca Azul Blanco a tribute to the Blue Agave Plant "The taste of excellence."
"Our unique mouth-blown bottle is a piece of Mexican Folk Art. Designed and
handcrafted by artisan Hipolito Gutierrez." -Penca Azul Website
