1800 Silver Tequila

1800 Silver is the unaged flagship expression from 1800 Tequila — 100% Blue Weber agave from the Los Altos highlands of Jalisco, rested briefly in American and French oak before bottling to add softness and integration without imposing color or wood flavor. The result is a clean, floral, balanced blanco that is one of the most widely used premium silver tequilas in the country.

The brief resting period in American and French oak — up to 15 days — sets 1800 Silver apart from completely unaged blancos. The short oak contact rounds the spirit without adding noticeable vanilla or caramel, preserving the fresh agave character while eliminating the sharp edges that fully unaged blancos can have.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does 1800 Silver rest in oak if it's a silver tequila?

The brief 15-day rest in American and French oak is not about adding flavor — it's about integration and smoothness. The very short contact rounds the spirit's edges without contributing noticeable vanilla, caramel, or color. The result is a more polished, approachable blanco than a completely unaged silver would produce.

Is 1800 Silver good for margaritas?

Yes — one of the most widely used premium silver tequilas in margarita production. The clean, balanced agave character holds up against lime and triple sec without being overwhelmed, and the price point makes it practical for high-volume use.
