Arette Fuerte Artesanal 101 Blanco Review

Produced by the Orendain family at their El Llano distillery, this is an extremely drinkable high proof. It’s vegetal and peppery on the nose, with a pleasing black licorice note. The palate is grassier and more herbal, with a touch of jalapeño and a slight alcohol burn.
