123 Organic Tequila Blanco, also known as “Uno,” is a pristine example of organic craftsmanship in the realm of agave spirits. Distilled from the purest blue Weber agave, this tequila is cultivated on the lowland estate located near Amatitán in Jalisco, Mexico—a region renowned for its rich red clay soil and temperate climate, which are ideal for producing agaves with a robust flavor profile. The meticulous process begins with mature plants that have been nurtured for nearly a decade without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Once harvested, the piñas are slow-cooked in stone ovens to achieve a perfect caramelization that underpins Uno’s signature taste.
Upon tasting 123 Organic Tequila Blanco (Uno), one is greeted by an immediate burst of fresh agave notes accompanied by hints of citrus and herbs—an olfactory bouquet that speaks to its unadulterated purity. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious blend of sweetness and subtle spice, followed by a smooth finish that retains its clean essence without any burn often associated with lesser tequilas. This unaged spirit encapsulates the raw character of agave in its most authentic form, making it not only an excellent choice for sipping neat but also providing a solid foundation for sophisticated cocktails where quality cannot be compromised. Its commitment to organic production methods further adds to Uno’s appeal among connoisseurs who value sustainability as much as they do flavor depth and complexity.

Tequila is a distilled spirit made primarily from the blue agave plant (Agave tequilana), predominantly produced in the Jalisco region of Mexico, along with some areas in Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas. This unique spirit undergoes a meticulous distillation process, typically involving double distillation in pot stills or column stills. Tequila is categorized into several types based on its aging process: Blanco (unaged or aged less than 2 months), Reposado (aged between 2 months and 1 year), Añejo (aged between 1 and 3 years), and Extra Añejo (aged over 3 years). Each type offers distinct flavor profiles ranging from fresh and herbal to rich and complex.
The flavor and aroma of tequila vary significantly across its categories. Blanco tequilas are known for their crisp texture with fresh citrus notes, peppery hints, and agave sweetness. Reposado tequilas present a softer profile with vanilla and caramel undertones derived from oak aging. Añejo varieties boast richer flavors such as chocolate, coffee, and dried fruit alongside pronounced oak influence. Extra Añejo tequilas deliver complex layers of deep wood characteristics combined with smoothness. Tequila is versatile in cocktails; it serves as the base for popular drinks like Margaritas, Tequila Sunrises, Palomas, and various craft cocktails that highlight agave spirits.
