Jenni Rivera Simplemente La Mejor Blanco is the silver expression of the tequila line created in tribute to Jenni Rivera, the iconic Mexican American singer known as La Diva de la Banda and Queen of Banda music, who tragically passed in December 2012. The name "Simplemente La Mejor" (Simply the Best) shares its title with one of her best loved albums. Made from 100% Blue Weber Agave grown in the highlands of Jalisco, the blanco is distilled twice to proof rather than diluted with water after distillation, an approach that preserves bright, true agave character. Bottled at 80 proof in a heavy decanter style bottle bearing her image and signature, this is a celebratory pour for fans honoring her legacy.

FAQ
Is this tequila actually made by Jenni Rivera's family? The brand is a tribute label produced in honor of Jenni Rivera, with the heavy decanter style bottle featuring her image and signature. Production is in Jalisco using 100% Blue Weber Agave from the highlands. The name "Simplemente La Mejor" honors one of her most beloved albums of the same title.
What does "distilled twice to proof" mean? Most tequilas are distilled to a higher proof and then proofed down with water before bottling. Distilling directly to bottling proof requires more agave per bottle and preserves more natural agave character without dilution. The result is a fuller, more agave forward profile.
How should I serve this blanco? Best served chilled in a tall ice filled glass with a lime wedge, or shaken into a margarita or paloma. The bright agave and citrus notes also work neat as a sipper at room temperature for those who prefer their blancos straight.
