Bribon Blanco Tequila

Bribón comes from a family that's been making tequila since 1840, at a distillery they opened in 1924 in the village of Tequila, Jalisco. The name is Spanish slang — loosely, "rascal" — a nod to the charismatic man about town. What sets it apart at this price is patience and process: only fully mature Blue Weber agave, grown seven to ten years and harvested by hand, cooked a full 18 hours at 100°C to pull maximum flavor, fermented with a proprietary house yeast, then double distilled using a blend of pot still and column still distillate. That pot still component is why reviewers keep noticing more character than a $20 blanco usually delivers — one taster remarked the herbal depth almost reads like a crisp reposado. The accolades back it up: 92 points at the 2020 Ultimate Spirits Challenge and 89 points from Tastings.com. Wine Enthusiast's Kara Newman, tasting blind, found delicate floral and tropical fruit aromas echoed on the palate, with pineapple and coconut sweetness leading into a long coconut-vanilla finish accented by cinnamon. Expect crystal clarity, intense floral and herbal aromatics with earthy undertones, and a viscous palate of soft vegetal notes and white pepper finishing crisp and clean. Bottled at 40% ABV. Genuinely smooth enough to sip, priced to make a great margarita.
