Gran Malo Horchata Tequila Liqueur (75cl, 15%)

A horchata-flavoured liqueur made with tequila blanco, produced in Mexico and bottled at 15% ABV in a 750 mL bottle. It takes the comforting sweetness of traditional horchata and adds the gentle character of tequila blanco, creating a creamy, dessert-like sip. The brand is Gran Malo (Casa Lumbre), with Spirit of Gallo as US importer. The bottle is white and embossed with folk-art patterns, topped with a metal cap that doubles as a shot glass. It should be served very cold and refrigerated after opening. The nose shows cinnamon, vanilla and sweet rice. The palate is creamy and sweet, with cinnamon, vanilla and a soft hint of agave. The finish is smooth and gently spiced.
