Clear color. Aromas and flavors of seared bell pepper, roasted plantain, lime salt, and mint with a silky, dry medium body and an interesting, medium-length finish with notes of lime, pepper, and limestone, lemon grass, sage, mint, and tarragon, and aloe and sage. Clean and subtle and could stand up on its own as a light sipper or nicely elevate a simple cocktail.

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.
