Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Mijenta Blanco different from other blancos?

Mijenta is the first tequila brand to be certified as a B Corp, and the distillery operates with a carbon-neutral footprint and closed-loop water systems. The labels are made from agave waste fiber; the boxes are 100% post-consumer recycled paper. Inside the bottle, you get a bright, citrus-forward blanco with cooked agave, white pepper, and a long mineral finish — the best tasting blanco with a legitimate sustainability story.

Is Mijenta Blanco better for sipping or cocktails?

Both. It's clean enough to sip neat from a tulip glass, with enough character to hold up in a Margarita, Paloma, or Tommy's Margarita. If you want a cocktail-first tequila for mixing daily, the blanco is the right call. For a richer sipping pour, step up to the Mijenta Reposado ($79.99), which adds American white oak aging.

Where is Mijenta made?

Mijenta is produced in the Highlands (Los Altos) of Jalisco, Mexico, using estate-grown Blue Weber agave. The distillery uses traditional brick ovens for cooking the agave and a slow fermentation process — the kind of patient production you'd expect from a craft brand priced twice as high.

Is Mijenta additive-free?

Yes — Mijenta is verified additive-free, meaning no glycerin, caramel coloring, oak extract, or sugar-based sweeteners are added to the spirit. This is increasingly important for tequila drinkers: many major brands add up to 1% of permitted additives. Mijenta's commitment to purity is one of the reasons it's recommended by so many sommeliers and bartenders. The Tequila collection features several other additive-free brands worth exploring.

How should I drink Mijenta Blanco neat?

Pour 1 to 1.5 ounces into a Riedel Ouverture tequila glass or a small white wine glass. Skip the shot glass — you'll lose all the aromatics. Sip at room temperature, without ice, and let it linger on the palate. Good blanco tequila has as much complexity as a young mezcal or a young Scotch; it rewards slow drinking.

What other sustainable spirits should I try?

If you liked Mijenta's approach, three other bottles on our shelf worth exploring: Reyka Vodka (geothermal-powered distillery in Iceland), The Botanist Gin (B Corp–certified Islay gin), and Flor de Caña 12 Year (carbon-neutral Nicaraguan rum). Our Earth Day 2026 Sustainable Spirits Guide covers all four bottles in depth.
