Fósforo Tequila

A Clarity you can taste.

Every sip of Fósforo Blanco Tequila reflects a commitment to precision in the highlands of Jalisco – where agave, elevation, and expertise come together to create a spirit that is bright, balanced, and immediately inviting.

Blanco

A bright, balanced expression that is clean, approachable, and unmistakably agave-forward, layered with notes of cooked agave, fresh lemon, melon, delicate white florals, soft cinnamon, and a clean, lifted minerality.

⊹
Los Altos, Jalisco

Our tequila is born in the red clay soils of Los Altos, where higher elevations yield agave known for floral aromatics, bright fruit character, and natural sweetness.

While many producers trace their roots to the Lowlands, long associated with the category’s legacy expressions, this highland origin defines a style that is both delicate and structured – an unmistakable signature of Los Altos.

    Fermenting

    Fermented over ~96 hours using a proprietary champagne yeast, enhancing brightness, lift, and a clean, expressive profile.

    Distilling

    Twice distilled to achieve balance and clarity, resulting in a spirit that is both delicate and structured.
