Review: Pasote Blanco Tequila
Pasote Blanco Tequila is crafted at the El Pandillo Distillery with 100% Highland estate grown blue agave, by Master Distiller Felipe Camarena. Once harvested the agave hearts are slow cooked in traditional brick ovens, then shredded and crushed using a 19,000 pound steamroller. The agave juice is fermented for 4-5 days in stainless steel tanks and double distilled in copper pot stills. A mix of 40% rainwater and 60% spring water is blended to reduce to proof. Pasote is named for the fierce spirit of Aztec Warriors. Pasote Tequila is one of several spirits owned by the 3 Badge Beverage Company. Some of the others includes Kirk and Sweeny Rum, Uncle Val’s Gin, Bib and Tucker Bourbon, and Masterson’s Whiskey. Read more
