Volans Blanco Tequila 750ml

Volans Tequila, named for the flying fish constellation, is produced at El Pandillo distillery in Jesús María, a town in the Los Altos highlands of Jalisco known for its agricultural heritage and blue agave fields. The brand is led by Cristina and Chad, working alongside master distiller Felipe Camarena, one of the most respected names in additive-free tequila production. Volans built its identity around estate-grown agave and a deep commitment to traditional, uncompromised methods.

This Blanco is made from fully mature Blue Weber agave, hand selected at five to seven years of age and roasted for twenty-two hours in stone and brick-lined ovens. The cooked agave is crushed using a large mechanical tahona for gentle, precise extraction, then fermented and distilled into three distinct blancos, each made separately with either deep well water from an aquifer over 450 feet down, natural spring water, or harvested rainwater. Those three batches are then blended together, a technique the brand uses to build balance and texture that a single water source couldn't achieve alone.

The nose opens with fresh florals layered over vegetal and herbal notes, along with sweet cooked agave and a touch of citrus. On the palate, that agave sweetness turns rich and satisfying, joined by mineral notes, more citrus, and a gentle hit of black pepper. The finish runs long and clean, closing on lingering citrus and earthy character. It's a versatile blanco suited equally to sipping neat or serving as the base of a well-made cocktail.
