Crafted with Highland Heritage
Don Julio Blanco is produced at La Primavera Distillery in Jalisco’s Los Altos region, where 100% Weber Blue Agave is hand-selected at peak maturity. The agave piñas are slow-roasted for 72 hours in traditional masonry ovens, then crushed and fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve their fresh, vibrant character. Double-distilled in small-batch copper pot stills, the tequila is bottled unaged to showcase its pure agave flavor, free from oak influence. This meticulous process, as noted by Drinks.ng, results in a “crisp, authentic blanco” that captures the essence of Jalisco’s highlands. Its clean, bold profile resonates with Nairobi’s sophisticated drinkers, blending heritage with modern appeal.
