This masterfully crafted Tequila is matured for more than 14 months in the same barrel aging process. On the nose, it is elegant, sweet and indulgent, with notes of dark cacao, dried fruit, toasted oak, and vanilla. With each sip, it tastes of toffee, apricot, oak, and chestnut.

This blend comes from two different casks: Cask 1 was distilled by brothers Axel & William with their handmade column still; Cask 2 consists of a heady rum from older brother Rommel’s copper alembic still. The combination of the three brother’s distillates is well-balanced and pops with bright, herbal, and chocolate notes that shine through the finish.
