The true beginnings of tequila date back to over 200,000 years ago when the Tequila Volcano erupted and nourished the soil of the Jalisco region in Mexico. Today, at the base of this volcano, the Volcan de mi Tierra distillery embodies over 250 years of passion and entrepreneurship, owing its legacy to the deep Mexican roots of the Gallardo family.
As an expression of the fertile land in the region, Volcan de mi Tierra Blanco is made in small, handcrafted batches with 100% blue agave. Blanco is a blend of herbaceous, lemony and spicy notes typical of the lowlands and fruity notes of cherry and pear, typical of the highlands.
With the bespoke shape of its bottle and label evoking the profile of a volcano, Volcan de mi Tierra is truly a testament to modern Mexican craftsmanship and to tequila originating from the ‘heart’ of the volcano.
Below are a few Volcan de mi Tierra cocktail recipes that pair well with Mexican cuisine.
Volcan de mi Tierra Blanco is available at Legacy Liquor at $95.79.
