La Venenosa Blanca
Blanca ensemble at ~48% – amarillo and chico aguiar, the costa in its full register
Score: 4.0/5 agaves
- Producer: La Venenosa
- Region: Cabo Corrientes, Jalisco
- Agave: Amarillo, Chico Aguiar
- ABV: 48%
- Price: $60 ($)
Verdict
La Venenosa Blanca is a mature ensamble statement – Esteban Morales blends the two coastal agaves into something that neither delivers alone. 48% is the right proof for the format, and the coastal signature is legible throughout. Track it next to the Raicilla Costa for the single-variant comparison. Consensus 4.0; we agree.
Blanca is La Venenosa thinking out loud about what the costa sounds like
Tasting notes
Nose: Tropical fruit, green herb, mineral damp
Palate: Layered and structured at 48%. Amarillo brings the tropical-sweet midpalate; chico aguiar anchors it with the drier, more austere coastal character. The ensamble reads intentional
Finish: Tropical-river rock, cool close. Stays long
The bottom line
Buy. Coastal raicilla ensamble at correct proof
