Rumquila (75cl, 40%)

Rumquila is a blended spirit that fuses aged Puerto Rican rum with 100% blue agave tequila from the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. It is produced by Red Eye Louie's using a proprietary Thermal Blending process that macerates the spirits together in small batches. It is best experienced neat or over a single large ice cube. The nose leads with vanilla, then brown sugar and French toast sweetness, with earthy agave undertones. The palate is soft with brown sugar and lean minerality, then oak, green pepper, orange peel and gentle mocha. The finish is long and warm, with subtle spice, residual sweetness and a clean, peppery trail.
