Astral Tequila Blanco is a premium spirit crafted with 100% organic Blue Weber Agave from the mountainous region of Jalisco, Mexico. This tequila is hand-crafted using traditional methods that date back 150 years, ensuring a rich and authentic flavor profile. The process, which takes 8-10 times longer than industrial methods, results in a full-bodied blanco tequila that is smooth on the palate, whether enjoyed straight or in a cocktail.
Produced as a celebration of beautiful culture and spirit, Astral Tequila has received numerous accolades, including The New York Times’ highest rating, a Double Gold medal from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and recognition as one of the “Top 10 Blanco Tequilas” in the world by Food & Wine magazine. Founded by Master Sommelier Richard Betts, Astral Tequila is a heritage spirit that embodies authenticity and tradition.
Astral Tequila is made from organically grown agaves harvested at high elevations in the mountains of Jalisco. The agaves are slow-roasted in traditional hornos (stone ovens) until they are golden brown and caramelized. After roasting, the piñas (agave hearts) are crushed, and the juice is fermented with the bagazos (agave pulp) using wild yeasts. This fermentation process, which takes 8-10 times longer than conventional methods, maximizes the agave character. The spirit is then twice-distilled and bottled at a higher-than-normal 92 proof, resulting in elegant and subtle flavors.
Whether you're hosting a gathering or enjoying a quiet evening, Astral Tequila Blanco is the perfect choice. Its smooth and full-bodied flavor makes it ideal for sipping neat or mixing into your favorite cocktails.
