A cult-favorite, ultra-traditional Blanco that captures the soul of tequila: raw, honest, and unforgettable.
A Time Machine in a Bottle
Distilled in the historic town of Tequila at the Sauza family’s century-old estate, this Blanco is made exactly as it was over 150 years ago. The defining step is the full tahona crushing under a two-ton volcanic stone wheel, a process that gives this tequila its signature richness. The result is elemental: sweet cooked agave, fresh citrus, olive brine, and deep, earthy minerality.
The palate is bold and viscous—an oily, luscious texture wrapped around flavors of roasted agave, black pepper, and butter. Bottled in hand-blown glass, this is the heart of the valley and a rallying cry for tequila made the right way.
How to Enjoy
The ultimate expression of pure agave. Sip it neat to understand why this is a benchmark for tequila lovers worldwide.
