  Casamigos Tequila Blanco Mexico 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 22227865479-19850

  A French chemical engineer fell in love with Mexico and its agave – and created a tequila that lets the fresh, green flavour of the Jalisco highlands speak for itself.

  Expert Description

  Calle 23 Blanco Tequila is a Mexican Blanco Tequila made from 100% agave, bottled at 40%.

  Calle 23 is the work of Sophie Decobecq, a French chemical engineer who moved to Mexico in 1999 and began developing her own brand in 2003. The agave is grown in Los Altos de Jalisco, the highland region between the towns of Tepatitlán and Arandas, and Calle 23 is known for using an unusually high concentration of agave during fermentation, giving its tequilas a fresh, intense agave character. The Blanco rests briefly on stainless steel before bottling, preserving its raw, green agave flavour without any barrel influence.

  Fresh agave and a light mineral scent, with a touch of citrus, mint and cinnamon.

  Palate

  Warm, full-bodied agave, with notes of green pepper and tart green apple.

  Casamigos Tequila Blanco Mexico 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 22227865479-19851

  Eight months in used American bourbon barrels give this highland tequila a touch of caramel and spice, without ever losing its fresh agave character.

  Expert Description

  Calle 23 Reposado Tequila is a Mexican Reposado Tequila made from 100% agave, bottled at 40%.

  Calle 23 was created by French chemical engineer Sophie Decobecq, who moved to Mexico in 1999 and began developing her own tequila brand in 2003. The agave is harvested in Los Altos de Jalisco, the highlands between the towns of Tepatitlán and Arandas, and double-distilled before the Reposado rests for eight months in used American bourbon barrels. The relatively short ageing period is a deliberate choice, giving the tequila a touch of wood and spice without losing the fresh agave character the brand is known for.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Sweet, cooked agave with butterscotch and warm fruit, plus a touch of orange and cinnamon.

  Palate

  Balanced between agave and oak, with notes of creamy vanilla, apple cider and citrus blossom.

  Finish

  Soft and lingering, with caramel and a last touch of vanilla.

  Casamigos Tequila Blanco Mexico 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 22227865479-19852

  Sixteen months in bourbon oak barrels transform Calle 23's highland agave into a full-bodied, amber añejo with toasted oak and a touch of brûléed banana.

  Expert Description

  Calle 23 Añejo Tequila is a Mexican Añejo Tequila made from 100% agave, bottled at 40%.

  Calle 23 was founded by French chemical engineer Sophie Decobecq, who has lived in Mexico since 1999 and made the agave of Los Altos de Jalisco her specialty. The Añejo spends twice as long in barrel as the brand's Reposado – a full sixteen months in bourbon oak barrels – giving it a fuller, more complex character without entirely losing the freshness Calle 23's highland agave is known for.

  Tasting Notes

  Toasted oak, vanilla and cedar, with warm baking spices.

  Palate

  Full-bodied and balanced, with oak, caramel, brûléed banana and agave, spiced with cinnamon.
