Solento Organic Blanco Tequila

Product Description

Solento Organic Blanco Tequila: Seven-Year Organic Agave, Meyer Lemon, and Tahitian Vanilla

Most blancos taste like pepper and citrus peel. Solento Organic Blanco Tequila tastes like Meyer lemon and vanilla bean. It’s made from 100% USDA certified organic blue Weber agave, grown for seven years under the Mexican sun and harvested in small batches from a single estate in Amatitán, Jalisco. The agave is cooked in stone and brick ovens, roller-milled, fermented in open-air tanks, and double distilled in stainless pot stills with copper coils, then bottled unaged at 40% ABV (80 proof), with no additives. The name means “slow sun,” and the brand’s founder, filmmaker Taylor Steele, wants you to take your time with it.

The brand describes a vanilla and lemon tree blossom aroma, a taste of Meyer lemons and Tahitian vanilla, a smooth, silky body, and a light, clean finish with a hint of lemon peel. Reviewers add black pepper, a little minerality, and a vanilla note that’s unusual for a blanco. It won Double Gold at the 2019 SIP Awards. Pour it over ice with a twist of lemon, as the brand suggests, or make a Sage Bee’s Knees (1.5 oz Solento Blanco, 0.5 oz lemon juice, 5 sage leaves, and 0.5 oz honey syrup), a paloma, or ranch water. It’s a bottle for organic and additive-free drinkers, a sipping blanco for people who say they don’t like tequila, and a good gift. USDA organic means the agave and soil are inspected every year for pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic fertilizers.
