General Gorostieta Blanco High Proof

General Gorostieta Blanco High Proof

A spicy little peep show in a glass.

 

General Gorostieta Blanco High Proof isn’t just good—it’s “wait… hold up, what did I just drink?” kind of good. This thing comes out swinging with bold, clean cooked agave, and then hits you with the kind of lingering burn that makes you blush and grin at the same time.

You know that feeling when you’re walking by a bakery and suddenly a warm, sweet breeze hits you with cinnamon, citrus, and happiness? Yeah, it’s kinda like that—but with tequila. That little tingle of heat on the finish? It’s not a flaw—it’s a feature. It’s the tequila whispering, “Wait for it…” before delivering a blast of citrus and mineral that just keeps unfolding.

My actual tasting notes said: “lingering yumminess I can’t even describe.” And I stand by that. It’s like trying to explain what makes a sunrise great—you can’t. You just sip and stare, and in this case, maybe get a little misty-eyed.

The burn doesn’t punish—it seduces. Like a classy peep show for your taste buds. The heat pulls back the curtain, teases the senses, and then… citrus. Smooth, bright, lingering citrus that dances across your palate like it paid for stage time.

This is additive-free, high-proof, high-character tequila that doesn’t apologize for anything—and it shouldn’t. It’s proud, clean, and just wild enough to keep you coming back for another pour.

If you like your blancos bold but beautifully balanced, this one’s your new muse. Hats off, General—this bottle commands respect.
