G4 Blanco De Madera Tequila 2024 (75cl, 45%)

A 45% ABV unaged blanco tequila from Destileria El Pandillo in Jesus Maria, Los Altos, Jalisco. It is made from 100% estate-grown Blue Weber agave and fermented entirely in pine wood tanks, a first for the distillery. Production uses a stone or brick oven, tahona extraction, copper pot stills and deep well water. The pine fermentation gives texture and complexity without barrel ageing. Reviewers note cooked agave, apple, cinnamon and black pepper on the nose, with caramel and pine; a sweet cinnamon and earthy agave entry with an oily mouthfeel; and a long finish of citrus, caramel, olive, lemon, mineral, cooked agave, anise, mint and pepper.
