If you’re a fan of tequila (Herradura in particular), you might be surprised to learn that until now, Herradura Blanco hasn’t been available in the United States. While this tequila was first introduced in Mexico in 1870, you couldn’t purchase it outside the country.

Tequila drinkers could get Herradura Silver, Reposado, Añejo, Ultra, Selección Suprema, and Legend, though. Just not Blanco, for some reason. Well, that changes now.

Herradura Tequila Blanco

This rare and historic tequila is set to join the lineup of popular tequilas already available in the U.S. Made at a higher ABV than the other Herradura tequilas, it’s bottled at a potent 46% ABV. The liquid is transparent in appearance and carries notes of cooked agave, gentle baking spices, cracked black pepper, and citrus peels. If you drink it neat, the finish is long, warm, lingering, and surprisingly mellow for a blanco tequila.

“Herradura Blanco holds a unique place in tequila history,” Kelley Kerger, Senior Brand Manager of Tequila Herradura in the U.S., said in a press release.

“For nearly a century, this was the only tequila produced at Casa Herradura, shaping not only our heritage but the tequila category as we know it today. By bringing Herradura Blanco to the U.S., we’re sharing a piece of that origin story, inviting consumers to experience an authentic taste of history in every pour.”

Wait, the next great agave spirit is wine?
A mellower take on tequila
Agave plant

The arc of agave spirits is a pretty involved one. In just the last decade alone, we've seen a rise in the popularity of not just tequila and mezcal, but also liquids, like sotol and bacanora. The next big agave spirit type? Well, it's more of a wine.

Ola Sol borrows more from the wine world, a fermented agave product that does not get distilled. In the end, it's a lighter take on tequila, made from the same base ingredient but in a less concentrated, lower-octane format. And it might just be the latest breakthrough in a crowded agave drinks arena.
