El Viejito Plata 50% Tequila - 750ml

El Viejito High Proof 50% Tequila is a natural, 100% Blue Agave Tequila. It offers a bold symphony of aromas and flavors, revealing notes of acetone, esters, melon, green fruits, white pepper, and sweet herbal nuances. The aroma is vibrant and expressive, with a crisp, resinous edge from the agave that harmonizes with fruity and floral hints.

The tequila carries a high ABV, which deepens and concentrates the olfactory experience, inviting layers of complexity to unfold on the palate. On the palate, the profile presents a robust entrance of cooked agave balanced by peppery spice, with hints of coconut and honey emerging as the heat softens. Subtle vegetal undertones contribute to a rounded, multifaceted character, while the sweetness remains well-integrated rather than overpowering.

In blind tastings, the spirit is described as offering flavors of cooked agave, black pepper, coconut, honey, and vegetal notes, all supported by a lasting, nuanced finish. The tequila is crafted from mature Blue Agave harvested in the highlands of Jalisco, where the higher elevation and soil contribute to a refined, lingering sweetness. Distillation is performed with care to preserve the agave’s natural integrity, producing a bold yet balanced tequila that shines in cocktails as well as neat pours.
