Tasting Notes
- On the nose, it offers intense notes of caramel, vanilla, cooked agave, and dulce de leche due to its slow cooking process. The fruity hints of red pomegranate, yellow plum, chico zapote, and citrus tones of grapefruit and lemon define the Alteño terroir. Light spicy notes of black pepper, floral aromas of rose petals, and subtle mineral tones due to its careful distillation compose its balanced profile.
- On the palate, the tequila is silky, confirming its olfactory promise and leaving traces of fruity, sweet, floral, and mineral flavors, as well as the cooked agave taste. It has a sweet and drawn-out mouthfeel.
To fully enjoy the exquisite taste of General Enrique Gorostieta Tequila Blanco, it is recommended to serve it in a flute or tequila glass, not a shot glass. Store the tequila between 12ºC and 15ºC and avoid storing it in a freezer. Once served, allow it to breathe and rest in a glass for 5 minutes before enjoying.

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.
