Volans Still Strength Blanco Tequila

Volans Still Strength Blanco Tequila is a premium expression crafted at the renowned El Pandillo Distillery in Jesús María, Jalisco. Master Distiller Felipe Camarena utilizes fully mature Blue Weber agave, grown at an elevation of 6,800 feet in the Los Altos region, to produce this exceptional tequila. Bottled at still strength, 106 proof (53% ABV), it offers an intensified agave flavor profile. The production process incorporates a unique water composition of 60% deep well water and 40% natural spring water, contributing to its distinctive character. Notably, 10% of the tequila is derived from fiber-fermented agave, enhancing its complexity and depth. Volans Still Strength Blanco is an additive-free tequila, ensuring a pure and authentic tasting experience.

Volans Still Strength Blanco Tequila's robust and complex profile makes it an excellent companion to a variety of dishes. Its bright citrus and herbal notes pair well with seafood ceviche, enhancing the freshness of the dish. The tequila's peppery undertones complement spicy Mexican cuisine, such as chiles rellenos or carne asada. For a delightful contrast, consider pairing it with creamy cheeses like Queso Fresco or a rich flan dessert, where the tequila's crispness balances the richness of the flavors.
