La Cofradia Ed. Catrina Blanco Tequila

Bright, expressive and imbued with cultural character, the Catrina Blanco by La Cofradía offers an elegant and fresh take on blanco tequila. With crisp agave purity and subtle herbal nuance, it’s a compelling choice for both sipping neat and showcasing premium margarita craftsmanship.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Produced in Jalisco, Mexico by the La Cofradía distillery, the “Ed. Catrina” range celebrates Mexico’s famed Día de los Muertos iconography. The Blanco expression is made from 100% Blue Weber agave, harvested at peak maturity, slow-cooked in traditional stone or brick ovens and distilled twice in copper-pot stills. Un-aged (blanco style) and bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), the spirit is presented in a ceramic bottle painted with the elegant skeleton figure “La Catrina” herself — merging artistry and craft in one.

Critics Reviews

• One review on Tequila Matchmaker described the Blanco as: “Clear silver body, medium weight, initial aroma sweet then herbal, palate of cooked agave with a clean finish.”

• Another specialty-tequila blog observed: “The ceramic bottle draws you in, but the tequila rewards with bright lime zest, fresh agave leaf, subtle white pepper on the finish — a crisp blanco with personality.”

• Industry commentary around the brand emphasises that the Catrina editions are designed not just as spirits but as collector pieces — the craftsmanship of the bottle and the heritage narrative add meaningful value to the drink itself.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: Clear and fresh; aromas of newly cooked agave, green apple, light lime peel and a whisper of mint or fresh herb.

• Palate: Medium body and clean delivery. Sweet agave leads, followed by crisp citrus (key lime, grapefruit), green bell pepper teamed with fresh herbal notes and light peppery spice.

• Finish: Short-to-medium length; the sweetness subsides into clean pepper, mineral edge and a mild agave echo — refreshing and polished.
