On the inside, is aged añejo tequila crafted by Master Distiller Viridiana Tinoco. The journey begins with 100% Blue Agave, produced at one of the highest points in the state of Jalisco. Its climate and land properties offer a characteristic tequila flavour. Each of the agaves is grown for 6 to 8 years before harvest. Organic agave requires approximately 72 hours of cooking in old masonry ovens. The baking gives the agave core a unique sweetness – easily perceived by the complexity of aroma and flavours. Lastly and importantly it is aged for 25 months in American whiskey casks and finished in Armagnac casks. It shows notes of peach, pear, raisin, candied walnut, toasted wood, clove, and tasting of peach, walnut, clove, and cacao, finishing with cacao and cinnamon.
