Description and specs

This limited-edition release was originally matured in traditional Oak hogsheads before being finished in Agave Tequila casks.

The tequila used to create this expression originally held high-quality 100% agave tequila produced from 7-8 year-old Agave tequilana var. Weber (blue agave) grown exclusively in the Altos (Highlands) region of Jalisco. Tequilas from the Highlands, such as this, are known for their more fruity and floral character.

The casks held the same style of tequila for four to five fills, being disgorged both as Reposado (aged for just under one year) and A ejo (aged up to 3 years).

The fruity floral notes delivered from this cask selection complements the citrusy, waxy versatile character of Deanston beautifully.

Tasting Notes:

Colour: Gold

Nose: Fresh. Notes of ripe pineapple, cr me brulee, mixed nuts and light oak.

Palate: Rich, yet dry on the palate. Bursting with flavours of caramelised agave, toasted almonds, baked apples with custard and warming spice.

Finish: Long finish with brown spice and sweet, citrus bursts.

"The nose is pleasantly vegetal and briny, with rich tones of cocoa and citrus peel. The lively palate has malted grain flavors coated with salted milk chocolate and earthy, porcini mushroom-like undertones mixing with zesty cola spice. Sweet-salty flavors linger on the tongue and sides of the mouth in a balanced finished with a subtle citrus peel kick." - Amanda Schuster, Distiller (91 Points)

"A fresh, fragrant nose greets you with lime, honey, vanilla, green banana, and a hint of barrel char. The palate is smooth and filled with balanced sweetness, offering notes of key lime pie, more fresh lime, and flavorful oak, and a long finish with more of the same. It s a pleasant battle between the first barrel's vanilla charms and the tequila cask's sweet lime influence." - David Fleming, Whisky Advocate (94 Points)
