Description
Cabrito Blanco Tequila 100% Agave is a true embodiment of heritage and craftsmanship, expertly distilled by Tequila Centinela S.A. de C.V. in the heart of Arandas, Jalisco, Mexico. With its establishment dating back to 1890, it reflects the rich traditions of tequila-making passed down through generations. The latest innovation is a commitment to producing distinctively flavorful tequilas, highlighted by the signature Cabrito Blanco.
This exquisite tequila is characterized by its remarkable tasting notes:
- Aroma: The nose reveals aromatic hints of dry asphalt, decomposed granite, cotton candy, and burlap, inviting you into the essence of the high desert.
- Palate: Experience a luscious balance of sweet caramel and cotton candy alongside enlivening peppery spice and vegetal undertones of baked squash and black pepper.
- Finish: A lively blend emerges with notes of cooked agave, black pepper, lime zest, and a gentle embrace of vanilla, offering an invigorating mouthfeel that resonates with each sip.
Enjoying Cabrito Blanco Tequila is an experience steeped in tradition, and it is best when served with thoughtful consideration:
- Chill the tequila and serve it in an elegant cocktail glass for pure enjoyment.
- Craft refreshing cocktails such as a margarita variation that highlights its flavors.
- On the rocks with a squeeze of lime provides a simple yet delightful way to relive its brightness.
- Pair it with lighter fare like seafood or sushi, enhancing the overall dining experience.
- Incorporate into a tequila spritz with fresh juices to create a summer sipper that's both lively and crisp.
When it comes to storage, ensure the longevity of your tequila by keeping it in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight, ideally between 50°F and 68°F. Always seal tightly after opening to maintain its exquisite flavor and aroma.
With a legacy that spans over a century and a focus on artisanal quality, Cabrito Blanco Tequila 100% Agave is not just a drink but a journey through the vibrant lands of Jalisco, inviting you to savor each nuanced flavor that unfolds with every sip.

Storage advice
To optimally store Tequila Blanco (100% agave) follow these practical recommendations:
- Temperature: Store tequila in a cool consistent environment ideally between 50°F and 68°F (10°C to 20°C) with many experts recommending a narrower range around 55°F to 65°F (13°C to 18°C). Avoid temperature fluctuations and exposure to heat sources such as stoves heaters or direct sunlight as these can degrade the spirit’s quality.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight or bright artificial light. UV light can affect the flavor compounds in tequila negatively over time.
- Sealing: Always keep the bottle tightly sealed after opening to reduce oxidation which can cause the tequila to lose aroma and flavor. If the bottle is half full or less consider transferring the tequila into a smaller bottle to minimize air exposure.
- Bottle Position: Store tequila upright rather than on its side. This prevents the liquid from contacting the cork or closure which could cause cork deterioration or leaching of flavors into the spirit.
- Humidity: Humidity is less critical for tequila than for wines; however keeping the storage area with moderate humidity to avoid cork drying (if cork-sealed) is beneficial. Very dry conditions can dry out cork seals causing air leaks but this is typically a minor concern for tequila.
- Special Notes for Opened vs. Unopened Bottles:
- Unopened bottles have an essentially indefinite shelf life if stored under the recommended conditions—cool dark upright and sealed.
- Opened bottles should ideally be consumed within 6 months to a year for best flavor. Tight resealing and minimizing air exposure are key to preserving quality after opening.
- Refrigeration: Not necessary and may impair texture and aroma. Tequila is best stored at room temperature within the recommended range.
Following these guidelines will help maintain the integrity and quality of your Tequila Blanco over time.
