Cascahuin Plata is a bold, additive-free blanco tequila produced by the family-owned Tequila Cascahuin distillery in El Arenal, Jalisco, Mexico. With over a century of tradition behind it, this spirit is bottled at 48% ABV (96 proof) — well above the standard 40% — capturing the pure, concentrated essence of 100% blue Weber agave through traditional methods and minimal intervention. Produced under NOM 1123, Cascahuin is committed to authentic, rustic tequila with no additives.

On the nose, Cascahuin Plata delivers roasted agave, citrus zest, white pepper, and herbaceous undertones. The palate reveals vibrant notes of cooked agave, fresh citrus, black pepper, and herbs, with subtle hints of honey and vanilla, while a touch of minerality adds complexity. Despite its higher proof, the texture is velvety smooth, and the finish is long, clean, and lightly spiced.

Best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate its depth, or as the backbone of simple cocktails such as a Paloma or Tequila Sour. It pairs beautifully with carnitas, grilled shrimp tacos, citrusy ceviche, roasted pork, and aged cheeses. This Costco item is sold as a case of 6 x 750mL bottles.
