Avión
Silver Tequila

Category: Blanco Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Clear color. Aromas and flavors of lime, aloe, and vanilla, lemon grass, grilled pineapple, and black pepper with a glycerous, crisp, bone-dry medium body and an interesting, medium-length finish conveying notes of lime pith and cucumber, lemongrass and lemon pepper, and white pepper. A wonderful sipping blanco that will also make a killer Margarita.

Silver or Blanco/White Tequilas are clear, with little (no more than 60 days in stainless steel tanks) or no aging. They can be either 100% agave or mixto. Silver Tequilas are used primarily for mixing and blend particularly well into fruit-based drinks.
