San Matías Blanco Tequila
Crafted at the historic Casa San Matías (NOM 1103) in the Highlands of Jalisco, San Matías Tahona Blanco is an artisanal, unaged expression that honors traditional tequila-making heritage. Produced using 100% estate-grown Blue Weber agave matured in rich, red volcanic soil, the piñas are slow-cooked for 48 hours in brick ovens. In a nod to 19th-century methods, the cooked agave is crushed with a traditional volcanic-stone tahona wheel to preserve its natural oils and fibers. Fermented in wooden vats and double-distilled in copper pot stills, this blanco offers an incredibly viscous, layered, and authentic Highland expression.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Crystal clear with bright silver highlights and a rich, oily sheen that clings beautifully to the glass.
- Nose: An expressive and bright aromatic profile led by intense cooked agave and clean citrus peel. Layered beneath are distinct notes of white flowers, green herbs, anise, and a subtle, post-rain mineral earthiness.
- Palate: Silky and remarkably full-bodied on the entry. The natural, honeyed sweetness of the roasted agave takes center stage, accompanied by vibrant lime zest and a distinct herbal character reminiscent of fennel and fresh grass. The tahona extraction lends a rustic depth and a pleasantly viscous texture.
- Finish: Clean and long-lasting with a crisp wave of white pepper heat, lingering citrus oils, and a delicate touch of pink pepper on the tail end.
Serving Suggestion: This textured blanco is exceptional when sipped neat at room temperature to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity. It pairs beautifully with fresh seafood, ceviche, and soft, creamy

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
