About Tanteo Jalapeño Tequila
Tanteo Jalapeño is an ultra-premium spicy tequila, infused with locally sourced fresh jalapeños. Tanteo uses peppers from two farms: in the summer, the jalapeños come from the town of Villa de Arista in mountains of San Luis Potosì, while in the winter they are sourced closer to the coast, outside of Puerto Vallarta. The peppers are processed and soaked in Tanteo’s over proof blanco, creating three different macerates: older Jalapeños are chopped and soaked together with pith and seeds for more intensive heat, young, more flavorful jalapeños are hollowed out to create a fresh, vegetal macerate, and a portion of the peppers is ripened on the vine until they start to turn red for additional heat and richness. Old and new macerates and blanco tequila are then artfully blended to create a consistent expression with the right balance of freshness and heat for the perfect jalapeño margarita.

About Tanteo Tequila
Tanteo is a line of ultra-premium tequilas crafted to make the perfect spicy and classic margaritas. The only tequila owned and operated by a co-operative of agave farmers, Tanteo is distilled, infused and bottled by hand at a cooperative distillery in the town of Juanacatlan in Jalisco. The opening of the distillery in a former denim factory helped revive the local economy, bringing jobs back to the area, and the distillery employs mostly women, with special emphasis on hiring single mothers and widows. The ingredients are sourced locally: the agave comes from a cooperative community of over 80 agave growers, and the peppers are grown in Mexico. The bottles, labels and corks are also made in Mexico. The production of Tanteo is waste free, as the distillery reuses and composts the byproducts and waste from the process.
Tanteo tequila is made from 100% blue Weber agave. The distillery uses agaves with higher sugar content, grown in the diverse Cienega region of Jalisco. The agaves are cooked in brick ovens and not a diffuser or autoclave, which results in a more flavorful tequila with fewer impurities, but requires more time and attention than the modern methods. The line features a higher proof Blanco, and three pepper infused expressions – spicy Jalapeño, smoky Chipotle and extra spicy Habanero.
About Tequila
Although tequila has developed a bad reputation, there’s more to the spirit than just shots on a Saturday night.
This traditional Mexican drink origins in the state of Jalisco when according to a local legend, lightning struck an agave cactus before the Nahua tribe drank its warm nectar. Behold, tequila.
Legally, tequila has to be made of 51% of Blue agave around the Jalisco region in Mexico. There are different types of tequila according to age – from the youngest representatives, blanco, reposado, and añejo, to the oldest extra añejo.
