Curamia Tequila Blanco is produced at Destileria Leyros in Jalisco, Mexico, from blue agave. It is bottled unaged at 80 proof and retails for around $42.99.
Aggressive and more than a little jarring, the punchy, charred vegetable notes here could have you thinking you’re drinking mezcal, the finish evoking barbecued meats and grilled scallions. Definitely a different animal than I was expecting.
