Production of the Tequila Blanco from Hacienda Real

Tequila Blanco - Hacienda Real is made from 100% Blue Weber agave. The agaves mature six to eight years in Jalisco. Sun, altitude and soil shape sugar and acidity. The heavy piñas are harvested by hand with the coa. Only ripe hearts go to the distillery.

The piñas are gently cooked in a stone horno. Slow heat gently releases the sugars. This preserves the pure agave aroma. After cooking comes the crushing. A traditional tahona or roller mill presses out the sweet must. The juice runs clear and smells of agave and citrus.

Fermentation starts with pure yeast. Open vats of stainless steel or wood keep the profile clean. Cool fermentation preserves the fresh citrus thread. Slow fermentation time builds depth and soft esters. This produces a must with a clear agave soul.

Distillation runs in copper. Two runs are standard. The first distillate carries the fresh power. The final distillate delivers purity, shine and structure. Strict cuts separate heads, heart and tails. Only the heart goes into the bottle. No barrel ageing, no color, no additives. The distillate stays clear, direct and precise.

For final rounding the tequila rests briefly in steel. The texture becomes silky, the finish refined. Afterwards it is bottled in 0.7 L. The label shows 40.0% ABV. For connoisseurs it’s pure agave, no make-up. Small batch, fine control, clean craftsmanship. This Blanco thus shows class in the glass and in the drink.
