The Bottle

Villa Lobos 55 Blanco Tequila is bottled at 55% ABV and made from 100% blue Weber agave. Produced in Jalisco, Mexico, Villa Lobos focuses on traditional methods to create a blanco that showcases agave in its purest form. The higher proof amplifies the natural characteristics of the spirit, delivering bold agave flavor without the softening influence of barrel aging. It works well in cocktails where tequila needs to stand up to other ingredients and drinks neat. The distillery employs copper pot stills to achieve a clean yet characterful spirit that retains the vegetal and mineral qualities of cooked agave. At this strength, the tequila carries more weight on the palate while maintaining the bright, fresh qualities expected from a quality blanco. It anchors a Margarita or Paloma and holds up to contemplative sipping.
