Jenni Rivera Blanco 750ML

Jenni Rivera Blanco 750ML is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) and double-distilled to proof at Casa Maestri in Jalisco, Mexico. What distinguishes this expression from nearly every other blanco on the market is that it reaches its final bottling strength during distillation itself, meaning no water is added afterward — a production choice that preserves agave character with notable fidelity.Quick Facts: ABV: 40% (80 Proof)  |  Origin: Jalisco, Mexico  |  Blanco (Unaged)  |  Distillery: Casa Maestri (NOM 1173)Production & HeritageJenni Rivera Blanco is produced at Destiladora Del Valle de Tequila, better known as Casa Maestri, a prolific distillery located in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, operating under NOM 1173. The tequila is made from 100% blue Weber agave sourced from both the highlands and lowlands of Jalisco, a dual-sourcing approach that blends the sweeter, fruitier highland agave with the more herbaceous, earthy lowland plant. The liquid undergoes double distillation and is cut to its 80-proof bottling strength during the distillation process rather than through post-distillation dilution with water — a technique intended to maintain a more concentrated and undiluted agave profile in the final spirit.Tasting NotesAroma: The nose opens with fresh, bright agave followed by citrus and stone fruit. Secondary layers reveal pear, green apple, and banana, with a subtle undercurrent of mint and cracked pepper adding complexity.Taste: The entry is notably smooth with an immediate sweetness that leans toward ripe citrus and tropical fruit. At mid-palate, earthy tones emerge — wet soil and fresh-cut grass — before giving way to cooked agave, black pepper, and a delicate touch of mint that keeps it lively.Finish: The finish runs long for a blanco, anchored by lingering black pepper spice and a dry, herbaceous quality. A faint sweetness from the agave persists underneath, keeping the close balanced rather than sharp.How to Drink Jenni Rivera BlancoSipping neat or slightly chilled is the most direct way to appreciate the distilled-to-proof character and the interplay between highland sweetness and lowland earthiness. A single ice cube can open up the fruit notes without dulling the agave backbone.
Paloma: The citrus and pear aromas integrate seamlessly with grapefruit soda, while the peppery finish adds structure.
Ranch Water: Its clean, unaged profile and earthy undertones hold up well against sparkling mineral water and fresh lime.
Margarita: The natural sweetness and fruit-forward palate reduce the need for excessive sweetener, letting the agave share the spotlight with fresh citrus juice.
