La Cofradia Blanco 2X375ML is a twin-pack of triple-distilled 100% Blue Weber agave blanco tequila from Jalisco, Mexico, bottled at 40% ABV. Awarded a Silver Medal at the 2025 International Wine & Spirit Competition, this expression comes from the same distillery that originally produced Clase Azul — a lineage that speaks to its pedigree in artisan tequila production. Quick Facts: ABV: 40% | Origin: Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico | Blanco (Unaged) | Distillery: La Cofradia, S.A. de C.V. Production & Heritage La Cofradia, S.A. de C.V. operates out of the town of Tequila in Jalisco, the heartland of Mexico's most iconic spirit. The distillery uses hand-harvested Blue Weber agave from the highland regions of Jalisco, where mineral-rich volcanic soils and higher elevations produce agave piñas with more concentrated sugars. The harvested agave is slowly cooked in traditional brick ovens before fermentation, then triple distilled in copper pot stills — an extra distillation pass beyond the industry standard that yields a notably clean and refined spirit. As a blanco, it is bottled without oak aging, preserving the raw character of the agave. Each bottle in the La Cofradia range bears the signature of distillery owner Carlos Hernandez Hernandez, and many expressions are presented in handmade ceramic vessels rather than mass-produced glass — a hallmark of the brand's artisan approach. Tasting Notes Aroma: Ripe pears and sweet apples lead the nose, followed by fresh agave and bright citrus fruit nuances. A subtle hint of pepper emerges as the spirit opens up in the glass. Taste: The entry is light-bodied and surprisingly creamy, with succulent cooked agave and lime arriving first on the palate. Mid-palate, notes of vanilla and powdered sugar emerge alongside a distinct white pepper spice. A delicate herbal quality and faint mineral undertone add complexity through the peak. Finish: Long-lasting and fresh, with a slightly spicy character and earthy agave notes that linger. The finish stays clean, a testament to the triple distillation process. How to Drink La Cofradia Blanco Sipping neat at room temperature is the best way to appreciate the full agave character and creamy texture of this blanco. A single large ice cube can tame the pepper notes and amplify the fruit. Margarita: The bright citrus and agave backbone stand up well against fresh lime juice and orange liqueur without getting lost. Paloma: Its light body and pear-like sweetness complement grapefruit soda, creating a balanced, refreshing highball. Ranch Water: The clean, triple-distilled profile pairs naturally with sparkling mineral water and a squeeze of lime for a crisp, low-effort serve.
