Process & Production
Blanco Muerte begins with 100% Blue Weber agave grown in Jalisco. The mature agaves are cooked in traditional brick ovens, helping develop the cooked-agave character that forms the foundation of the tequila.
After cooking, the agave is crushed using a roller mill before fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. The fermented agave juice is then distilled twice in copper pot stills, producing an unaged Blanco tequila designed to preserve the fresh character of the agave.
Blanco Muerte is bottled at 40% ABV and is presented without barrel aging, allowing the agave, citrus, herbal, and pepper notes to remain prominent.

Finish: Clean and dry, with soft minerality, lingering agave, and a gentle peppery snap.
What Makes It Special
Blanco Muerte focuses on the character of the agave rather than oak maturation. Because it is bottled unaged, there is no barrel influence to cover the fresh agave, citrus, herbal, and pepper characteristics of the spirit.
The tequila is produced in Jalisco under NOM 1504 using brick ovens, a roller mill, stainless-steel fermentation, and copper pot stills, combining traditional and established tequila-making techniques.
