VIVIR Tequila Anejo
Don Fulano Reposado
A highland tequila, Don Fulano is made from 100% estate grown mature blue agave cooked in autoclave ovens, naturally fermented in open tanks using wild and cultivated yeast, and distilled in approximately 80% copper pot still and 20% copper, double column still. The spirit is distilled to 50% to 55% then cut with demineralised water from a deep well in the distillery. The tequila is non-charcoal filtered and contains no additives. The Reposado is carefully rested in a combination of new and used French limousine oak barrels for a minimum of eight months and up to two years. This ensures that the resulting spirit is the perfect balance between agave notes and those from the barrel. A nose of red fruits, think cherries and jam with the sweetness of cooked agave further enhancing this, with delicate herbal notes providing a balancing counterpoint. The French oak influence becomes obvious on the palate, with rich caramel, maple syrup and creamy vanilla flavours. With those is fruity dark chocolate, some of the jam from the nose, although deep in the mix and gentle spiciness. The cask influence is felt yet again in the finish, where agave pepperiness quickly fades to vanilla.
Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Platino Tequila
Casa Cuervo wants to share the taste and aroma of its Reserva De La Platino tequila, the embodiment of a family tradition that began in 1795. Experience passed from generation to generation culminates in an ultra premium tequila like no other, past or present, that deserves to wear the Cuervo name. This exquisite liquid is handcrafted from a unique process the family calls Esencia de Agave, a meticulous method that brings the full character, flavour and essence of the agave life.
Don Fulano Blanco tequila
Don Fulano tequilas are made from agaves grown by fifth generation agave growers in the Jalisco highlands of Mexico. They are then distilled in the valley town of Tequila. The blanco tequila, packaged in a stunning bottle, is elegantly complex with notes of butterscotch and aniseed.
Abasolo El Whisky De Mexico Corn Whisky
Abasolo El Whisky De Mexico Corn Whisky is crafted and distilled from 100% Mexican Cacahuazintle (kaka-wha-sint-lay) corn, which has been cultivated and passed down for more than 200 generations by local farmers for its distinct and extraordinary flavour. Abasolo uncovers the deepest flavours of this ancestral corn through nixtamalization, a 4,000-year-old cooking technique never before used in whisky production, but fundamental in preparing corn as food in Mexico. While American bourbon makers use at least 51% corn and a percentage of barley, the nixtamalization process allows Abasolo to use 100% corn to make whisky. The nixtamalization process also has a direct impact on flavour, causing the spirit to open up with more floral sweetness and warmth of the grain. Made from GMO-free corn this gluten-free whisky has deep, nuanced notes of roasted corn, honey, vanilla, black tea and leather. These flavours are developed from the ancestral corn through the nixtamalization process and these flavours are unlike any other whisky.
Calle 23 Anejo Tequila
Calle 23 is a highland tequila from Jalisco. Its creator, French-born biochemist Sophie Decobecq, distils each expression separately (Blanco, Reposado, Aejo) to its own special recipe. Her tequilas are double-distilled and she uses Bourbon casks from Kentucky. This anejo tequila is aged 16 months. It features a very satisfying agave rich palate featuring salty and buttery vanilla garnished with oaky smoke.
Ilegal Mezcal Reposado
Ilegal mezcal is a beautifully balanced vintage mezcal from Tlacolula, Oaxaca Mexico. It is made by a fourth generation Mescalero and his family using 500 year old methods. Aged for four months in new American oak. Caramelised pear on the nose, agave, butterscotch and vanilla on the palate. A light fruit finish. Velvety smokiness throughout.
Pādre Azul Super Premium Tequila Reposado
About 10 years have passed since the blue agaves in this tequila first stretched their leaves towards the hot Mexican sun, can you imagine? An agave must grow for 8 to 10 years before it can be harvested for tequila production. This is followed by the cooking process and then fermentation, which in turn takes several days. This tequila then matures in carefully selected bourbon oak barrels for at least 8 months. The most important ingredient in our tequila is undoubtedly time. The result: a delicate vanilla taste, a hint of raw and cooked agave, very present, very pleasant in the finish ...
Herradura Añejo Tequila
Herradura Añejo is an ultra smooth sipping tequila worthy of the status of Scotland's fine Single Malt Whiskies. The tequila is aged for 2 years in American oak barrels giving the spirit its trademark deep amber colour & flavours of vanilla, oak and dried fruits. Excellent over the rocks.
Tequila Fortaleza Blanco
In 1999, Guillermo Erickson Sauza decided to bring back the old Sauza family distillery to life. Today he produces Tequila Fortaleza there using 100% stone-milled agave, entirely produced on the estate which lies right in the middle of the town of Tequila. Fortaleza Blanco Tequila is unaged. It has an amazingly soft texture and vegetal sweetness with a long and satisfying finish.
