Arette is a brand deeply rooted in history, founded in 1986 by brothers Eduardo and Jaime Orendain, and proudly produced at the renowned El Llano distillery within the town of Tequila. This expression shows the vibrant character of the Tequila Valley.
Nose: Strong cooked agave is met by sweet floral notes, with intriguing hints of petrichor and a subtle green pepper character.
Taste: The palate leads with cooked agave and floral elements. This is quickly joined by noticeable green pepper, mint, and a warm spice of cracked black pepper. A slight anise and olive brine adds depth.
Finish: The finish is clean, showcasing lingering sweet floral notes alongside mint. It closes with a soft persistence of black pepper and anise.
For its price, this Arette blanco won't be the highest-value bottle you buy, but it remains a great option that you will enjoy sipping on nonetheless. It honors many traditional production methods and offers a highly enjoyable, flavorful sipping experience.
