La Puerta de Agave Blanco
Artisanal tequila from San Juanito de Escobedo, Jalisco.
An unaged tequila with a fresh, direct profile, with enough agave to hold up when mixed. That is why it works equally well served neat or in clay cups. The agave is cooked in a masonry oven, crushed and fermented wild, and distilled in copper and stainless-steel stills, under the supervision of Master Distiller Antonio Gaytán Barboza.

Artisanal tequila from San Juanito de Escobedo, Jalisco.
Puerta de Agave is a tequila made by hand, born from the working hands of a town with history and tradition.
Its process keeps the methods of traditional tequila: cooking in masonry ovens, wild fermentation, and distillation in copper stills.
From that comes a tequila with character, a defined aroma, a clear alcoholic presence, and a balanced body.
It is drunk neat and works equally well in cocktails, especially in clay cups, one of the signature drinks of the Ruta del Tequila: tequila with fresh grapefruit, orange, lime, and lemon, served in a clay cup.
Part of its inspiration comes from that Jalisco custom.
