Alma Del Jaguar Blanco is a soulful tribute to the highlands of Arandas, where the Vivanco family crafts this single estate tequila at a staggering 6,800 feet. By blending distillates from both wild and Champagne yeasts while playing classical music in the fermentation room, they have captured a unique energy that feels incredibly vibrant on the palate. This unfiltered spirit is a commitment to the land, as every bottle supports wild jaguar conservation and features sustainable, recycled materials. It is a beautifully clean, honeyed find that truly connects you to the heart of the agave fields.

If you're looking for a classic representation of highland tequila, this bottle is a great choice. Its impressive array of aromas includes green peppers, wet rocks, and subtle notes of underripe tropical fruit. On the palate, it delivers an equally intense experience and feels like you're drinking a much higher-alcohol spirit. (Like most tequilas, it's bottled at 40 percent ABV.) And we say that as a compliment, highlighting the tequila's concentration, energy, and long-lasting finish.
