Tequila Aha Toro Blanco

Tequila Aha Toro Blanco is an excellent tequila made from 100% Agave. Its smooth, delicate aroma, amber hue and incomparable flavor make it a beverage for true connoisseurs. Such an outstanding tequila deserves an outstanding presentation, which is why it is bottled in a unique, handcrafted piece of blown glass.

Also handcrafted by Mexican artisans, the bottle's rustic label adds the final touch that makes it a true work of art both inside and out.

The Tequilana Weber Azul variety of Agave plant used by Destilados Olé to produce its tequilas, is grown in the Highlands of Jalisco, at 2100 meters above sea level and just outside of Arandas. It is a cold, semi-dry zone, the ideal environment for our raw material. The climate and soil conditions keep the agave cool, lending it its distinctive aroma and flavor and enriching it with the sugars and nutrients of this privileged land.

Welcome to the Highlands!

This is a great Tequila that is very representative of the highlands. Not all unlike Don Julio in some respects.

The nose is of a strong mineral and sweet baked Agave with grass and olive.

The Taste starts with a soft fruity opening followed by strong Agave and a potent mineral flavor with a touch of earthiness, pepper and a slight bitterness. I don't like bitterness in my tequila but this is very slight and I think it improves the balance of the sweetness some. There is a semi-oily mouth feel.

The Finish is long and smooth with agave a slight pepper. It's got a great lasting finish.

This is an amazing blanco with sweet and clear agave flavour. I think it makes a great sipping tequila despite the slight alcohol burn because of the freshness and rich flavours. Aha toro blanco is a must try for people who loves a good blanco.

Nose is surprisingly strong extra-sweet baked agave, olive and caramel. Very sweet and creamy on the tongue, the first sip offers a deeper agave flavour, a grassy herbal note and some minerals, with just a touch of bitterness. Finishes quickly with no burn - just the slightly bitter agave and mineral fade. This is a very impressive blanco! Although Jesus Mari­a was on my list of places to visit last year, I was talked out of it. This year will be different - that little highland town is producing some impressive goods.
