123 Organic Tres Añejo Tequila (75cl, 40%)

A 750ml añejo tequila from Amatitan in Jalisco's Tequila Valley, made from 100% blue Weber agave from certified-organic farming and aged 18 months in white oak barrels. The agave is slow-cooked in stone ovens, fermented in the open air and double-distilled. It is bottled at 40% ABV in hand-blown recycled-glass bottles with recycled-paper labels printed in soy ink. Producer copy describes Tres opening with heady wood and tannin notes that soften in the glass into caramel and chocolate. Specialist descriptions add vanilla and oak, dark bitter baker's chocolate and ripe peach on the nose, then white pepper and lemon peel up front over roasted agave and orange marmalade, with a rich, evolving finish.
