Herradura Colección de la Casa Directo de Alambique presents tequila in a bold, unrestrained form. Estate bottled at 110 proof / 55% ABV, this limited-edition blanco is left unaged to showcase the vivid character of 100% Blue Weber agave from the moment it leaves the still.
Crafted at Casa Herradura using natural, open-air fermentation, it delivers a bright and aromatic profile led by fresh cooked agave, herbal spice, green pepper and citrus zest. The palate is full and expressive, balancing dominant sweet agave with green apple, green pear and dried-fruit notes before moving into a long, warming finish.
This high-proof blanco tequila is made for agave enthusiasts seeking a concentrated, still-strength sipping experience. Its limited Summer 2027 release also makes it a compelling choice for collectors, premium tequila tastings, distinctive gifting and elevated cocktails. Existing market descriptions of Directo de Alambique similarly characterize it as a full-bodied, unaged high-strength tequila with green pepper, citrus, herbs and spice.
