Product: Kah Tequila Day of the Dead Blanco

The General Wine Company is proud to offer Kah Tequila Day of the Dead Blanco, a unique and vibrant spirit that honours both Mexican tradition and exceptional tequila craftsmanship.

Beyond the Bottle: A Look at Kah Tequila

The name Kah originates from the ancient Mayan language, signifying "life." This philosophy is woven into the very essence of Kah Tequila. Their tequilas are crafted using 100% Blue Weber agave, meticulously selected at the foot of Tequila Volcano in Jalisco, Mexico.  The agave hearts are then slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens, extracting the rich, natural sugars that contribute to the tequila's flavour profile. Kah Blanco is unaged, bottled shortly after distillation, allowing the pure agave character to shine through.

Tasting Kah Tequila Day of the Dead Blanco: A Journey for the Senses

Colour: Crystal clear. This Blanco tequila boasts a flawless transparency, reflecting its unaged nature and highlighting its purity.

Aroma:  Kah Tequila Day of the Dead Blanco presents a surprisingly well-balanced and inviting bouquet.  Fresh, vegetal notes of agave take centre stage, reminiscent of freshly cut grass and artichoke hearts. Hints of white pepper add a touch of piquancy, while subtle citrusy undertones provide a refreshing complexity.

Palate: The first sip of Kah Blanco is light and pleasant, showcasing a smooth, silky texture. The initial sweetness of cooked agave gently unfolds, complemented by a subtle warmth of white pepper. As the tequila lingers on the palate, a touch of minerality emerges, adding depth and intrigue. The finish is medium in length, with a gentle peppery spice that leaves a pleasant tingle.
