Production of the Tequila Blanco from Casa Mirador

The base is 100 % Blue Weber Agave from Jalisco. The agaves mature six to eight years in the sun. The piñas go fresh to the mill. A team trims the hearts cleanly. Only ripe core material goes into the oven.

Roasting is done slowly in the stone oven, the Horno. Gentle heat releases the sweetness. Subtle smoke and caramel notes remain discreet. Time in the oven is two to three days. This creates depth without covering the freshness.

Milling uses the Tahona or a gentle roller. The juice runs clear and intensely aromatic. Fermentation follows in open vats. Native yeasts kick things off. Fermentation proceeds cool and calm. This keeps fruit and agave in focus.

Distillation is carried out twice in the Copper Pot Still. The master distiller separates heads and tails precisely. Only the heart, the Corazón, goes forward. This ensures purity, brightness and a silky mouthfeel. The texture remains vital and clear.

After distillation the spirit rests in stainless steel. This lets sharpness ease and the line round out. A light filtration clarifies, yet preserves the soul. No additives go into the bottle. No color, no sugar, no glycerin. Only pure agave with its terroir.

It is bottled at 40 % vol. in 0.7 l. The batch is intentionally kept small. This keeps each bottle precise in style. Every release bears the house's signature. Tequila Blanco - Casa Mirador stands for craftsmanship, clarity and drive. The result reads radiant, fresh and focused.
