ABOUT HOUSE BLANCO
House of Rare Blanco is the foundation of our aged expressions and a remarkable blanco in its own right. Alongside the signature minerality of El Arenal, it carries a vivid minty freshness shaped by the eucalyptus trees surrounding the Herencia de Agaves estate and captured during open-air fermentation.
Made with volcanic well water, agaves harvested within 10km of the distillery, and bottled at 40% ABV.
Profile
- Earth-driven agave character
- Fresh herbal complexity
- Mineral, saline structure
- Dry, persistent finish
TASTING NOTES
Nose
Grounded and characterful from the start. Cooked agave opens with deep earth, wet stone, and a pronounced mineral core. Herbal notes of eucalyptus, bay, and wild green brush emerge more slowly, woven into hints of citrus peel, white pepper, and a restrained vegetal sweetness. The overall impression is savory, layered, and distinctly terroir-driven.
Palate
Broad and structured on entry, with roasted agave providing depth and grip. The mid-palate leans more savory than sweet, revealing green tea, rosemary, black pepper, and a subtle olive-brine salinity. Eucalyptus appears less as brightness and more as a cooling thread running through the spirit. The texture is polished yet substantial, carrying a firm mineral backbone throughout.
Finish
Long and composed, with lingering notes of dried herbs, stone, gentle spice, and earthy agave richness. A cooling lift remains, but the lasting impression is more dry, savory, and architectural than overtly fresh.
