Tasting Notes

Description

Mexico- This anejo selection is drawn from old French and American oak barrels to create a unique and unforgettable complexity. From Master Distiller Enrique Fonseca, known for his expertise in aging.

Flavor Profile

Bold and herbaceous nose with distinct sweet and creamy flavors of toffee, walnut candy, custard along with zesty orange and dark chocolate.

Tequila Ocho Tequila Anejo Single Estate:

I like this tequila for many reasons but the biggest reason is its Mexican taste profile. This is not for someone who likes sweet tequila like a class Azul it is more for the person who wants to enjoy a nice oaky spirit by the fire at night. This brand is up and coming so keep an eye out for more of these guys.

Description

On a morning when three brilliant roosters (tototl) greet the dawn with hopeful songs of renewal, mature agave plants at the hacienda are ready to be hand harvested and Organic Blanco tequila awakens from its eighteen months slumber in white oak barrels to be reborn as Anejo (Tres) Tequila. Just as the rooster has long been a symbol of virility and power in Mexican folklore, the complex aromatic bouquet and deep golden hue of Anejo (Tres) Tequila are signs of its superior quality and lengthy aging. Enjoy Anejo (Tres) tequila as you would any fine, aged spirit by savoring the mastery of its limited production and the mystery of its ancient legend.

Tasting Notes

Aged for 18 months in white oak barrels, 123 Organic Tequila Añejo (Tres) emerges with a prominent woody character and deep golden hue. It initially sends heady notes of tannin and wood oil to the nose, yet the aromas mellow in the glass, giving way to rich caramel and chocolate elements.

In our minds, producing tequila is an art form, one we take very seriously. With Cazcanes, you wont find a large scale distillery producing tequila for multiple brands. What you will find is a boutique-style distillery that operates in harmony with the land, environment and natural spring that preserves it. Cazcanes takes a distinctive approach to producing hand-crafted tequila from start to finish.

Cazcanes sources natural artesian water for our tequila. The water starts off as rain or snow high up in the pristine peaks of the San Pedro De Los Landeros Mountains. It slowly travels through natural minerals deep within the volcanic mountains before emerging at the Navichi springs.

We hand select each individual 100% Weber Blue agave for harvest during peak sugar levels to deliver a distinct Cazcanes taste. The “piñas” are then cooked, rolled, and squeezed by hand to extract and concentrate their flavors. Next comes fermentation using, natural wild yeast, followed by distillation in our alembic stills.

Our attention to detail continues through every step of our small batch process, until our tequila finds its final resting place in a hand-blown glass bottle.

Cazcanes Tequila No.7 Reposado is the first Reposado offering from Mr. Collin Edwards, the award winning Master Distiller of Cazcanes Tequila. Only 600 have been produced. Of which, only 300 have been available in the California market Starting July 2018. This particular blend was aged in heavy charred american oak barrels for 4 months to produce a defined taste and robust body. It also was awarded a Bronze Medal from the 2018 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
