Bottled straight from the still at the highest altitude distillery in the world, Alto Canto High Proof Blanco Tequila is a raw, unfiltered expression of the Sierra del Tigre highlands at its most honest and powerful.


Crafted by Master Distiller Juan Reyes under NOM 1636, this blanco is made from 100% organic, additive-free agave using time-honored techniques including tahona stone crushing and wild and malolactic fermentation with pure mountain water drawn from elevation. The result is a spirit of rare terroir and craft integrity, bottled without alteration to preserve every note the land and process impart.


  • Nose: Hints of black pepper, fresh flowers, and richly cooked agave
  • Palate: Smooth and full with dominant cooked agave, bright citrus, white pepper, minerals, and a whisper of moist forest soil
  • Finish: Clean and quick, leaving the agave character at the forefront

Despite its high proof character, Alto Canto High Proof Blanco is smooth enough to stand on its own and assertive enough to anchor a Margarita or Tommy's Margarita with genuine depth and complexity.


Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its elevation-born character, or shaken into your favorite agave cocktail. Alto Canto High Proof Blanco is a 100% organic agave tequila blanco from the Sierra del Tigre region of Jalisco, Mexico, crafted by a proudly Mexican-owned brand at 9,000 feet above sea level.

Alto Canto is a Mexican-owned tequila made at its own distillery, Tequila El Rocío (NOM 1636), about 9,000 feet up in the Sierra del Tigre mountains of southeast Jalisco. It uses two ingredients: organic blue agave grown for seven years in Zapotlán del Rey, and natural mountain spring water. The agave cooks for 72 hours in masonry ovens, is crushed by a volcanic stone tahona and ferments wild in American oak vats with its fibers. It is distilled twice in copper pot stills, and the brand publishes the details of every batch.

Valle de Juárez, Jalisco

Map of Jalisco, Mexico, with Valle de Juárez marked

Valle de Juárez is a small farming town in southeast Jalisco, next to Mazamitla and the Michoacán border. The municipality climbs from about 2,000 meters to 2,800 meters in the Sierra del Tigre, where pine, oak and fir cover the higher slopes. Springs feed its streams and the reservoir at the edge of town, and farming and cattle are the main work. Far from the traditional tequila towns, it still lies inside the tequila denomination of origin, which covers all of Jalisco.
