Mis Aguacates Tequila Reposado (75cl, 38%)

A reposado tequila made from 100% blue agave, rested for six months in American oak barrels. It is produced at NOM 1459, Tequila Selecto de Amatitán, in Amatitán, Jalisco, Mexico, and bottled at 38% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Production follows stone and brick oven cooking, roller-mill extraction, deep well water, stainless-steel fermentation without fibres, and double distillation in stainless pots with copper coils. The importer's notes describe a brilliant straw-yellow spirit with delicate citrus and raw agave on the nose intertwined with cooked agave, and a palate that is warm and smooth with soft vanilla, cooked agave, and a delicate sweetness.
