  Jose Cuervo Especial Gold Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10154

  Behind almost every classic margarita sits a bottle of Especial Gold. The golden colour catches the bar light long before the first glass is poured, agave and vanilla rising from the glass — a tequila that has followed cocktail culture from the beach bars of Tijuana to shakers the world over.

  Expert Description

  José Cuervo Especial Gold is a Mexican Gold Tequila (Mixto), bottled at 38% ABV. It is produced at the La Rojeña distillery in the town of Tequila, Jalisco — home to the José Cuervo family since 1795 and one of the oldest continuously operating tequila distilleries in Mexico.

  Especial Gold is a mixto tequila, where at least 51% of the sugar source comes from blue agave, with the rest from other sugars. The golden colour comes from blending an aged Reposado portion — rested at least two months in oak barrels — with younger tequila and a touch of caramel colouring. The result is a soft, approachable tequila that has served as many drinkers' introduction to the category for decades.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  The nose is light and sweet, with notes of agave, vanilla and a hint of toasted oak, framed by orange peel and a sugary sweetness.

  Palate

  The palate is sweet with cooked agave and caramel, spiced with a light touch of pepper, while vanilla keeps it soft throughout.

  Finish

  The finish is short and warm, with a last note of vanilla and a touch of grapefruit.

  Did You Know?

  Especial Gold is, according to several industry reports, the world's best-selling tequila — a position it owes in part to José Cuervo's role in taking the Margarita from the bars of Tijuana to the rest of the world, back when family member Juan Beckmann Gallardo promoted the brand across the United States in the 1940s.

  Jose Cuervo Especial Reposado Mexican Tequila 50 cl 38%

  Item no.: 059763-615-120

  In the heart of Jalisco, where rows of blue agave stretch toward the sun as far as the eye can see, sits La Rojeña, the oldest continuously operating distillery in Latin America. From here, Jose Cuervo Especial Reposado has been shipped out into the world since 1795, and it still shows up at pretty much every good party.

  Expert Description

  Jose Cuervo Especial Reposado Mexican Tequila is a Reposado Tequila made from blue agave and bottled at 38%.

  This is the Cuervo family's best-known expression and the world's best-selling tequila. It is a blend of agave and cane sugar spirit, a so-called mixto tequila, which sets it apart from 100% agave expressions such as Cuervo's own Tradicional range. What it lacks in purity, it makes up for in versatility: Especial Reposado was built for exactly what most people use it for, making a Margarita or a Paloma taste better. After distillation, the tequila rests briefly in oak barrels, which gives it its golden colour and a rounder, slightly sweet character.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Cooked agave, creamy caramel and a touch of vanilla, spiced with light nuttiness and a whisper of dried herbs.

  Palate

  Medium-bodied and balanced between the sweetness of the agave and spicy oak notes, with baked agave, mixed spice and a light honeyed sweetness.

  Finish

  Soft and warm, with a long, spicy finish that leaves a last trace of sweetness behind.

  Jose Cuervo Platino Tequila Mexico 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10156

  There is a Cuervo that has never seen a barrel and still tastes like decades of experience. Platino is the family's private expression of agave in its purest form — grown, harvested and distilled using a method only a handful of people in Jalisco know in full detail.

  Expert Description

  José Cuervo Platino is a Mexican Blanco Tequila (100% Agave), bottled at 40% ABV. It is distilled at La Rojeña in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, and belongs to José Cuervo's "Reserva de la Familia" line — a range originally made solely for the family's and friends' own table.

  Platino is made exclusively from 100% organically grown Blue Weber Agave, yeast and water, through a production method called "Esencia de Agave" — a technique José Cuervo has refined over two centuries. The method is designed to preserve the agave's original aroma and character, without the tequila ever touching a barrel.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  The nose offers pepper and honeyed agave, with a hint of apple and parsley.

  Palate

  The palate is sweet and spicy at once, with melon, honey and hay, followed by a light peppery spice.

  Finish

  The finish is medium in length and crisp, with chamomile and cinnamon, and the agave stays present throughout.

  Jose Cuervo Reserva de La Familia Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10159

  Some tequila is just tequila, and then there's the kind that's spent three decades resting in the Cuervo family's private cellars. Reserva de La Familia isn't a bottle you simply pour — it's one you sit down for.

  Expert Description

  Jose Cuervo Reserva de La Familia is a Mexican Extra Añejo Tequila made from 100% agave, aged in French and American oak and bottled at 38%.

  Like the rest of the Cuervo family's range, the bottle comes from the La Rojeña distillery in Jalisco, where tequila has been made since 1795. Reserva de La Familia was created in 1995 to mark the 200th anniversary of the Cuervo family's tequila venture, and it's considered the world's first commercial Extra Añejo Tequila. It's aged for an average of three years in French and American oak, and the final blend is complemented with tequila from reserves that have rested for over 30 years in the distillery's private cellars. Every bottle is handmade, wax-sealed and individually numbered, and the annual gift box is decorated each year by a celebrated Mexican artist.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Toasted almonds, vanilla and cinnamon, backed by oak spice and a hint of dried fruit.

  Palate

  Rich and balanced between sweet and spicy, with dark chocolate, caramel and butterscotch, nutmeg and cooked agave underneath.

  Finish

  The finish is long, elegant and velvety, with a lingering note of oak, cocoa and sweet spice.

  Jose Cuervo Silver Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10155

  A pinch of salt on the back of the hand, a lime wedge waiting alongside — Especial Silver is usually the first tequila most people meet. Clear as spring water and crisp as a summer evening in Jalisco, without a moment's contact with wood.

  Expert Description

  José Cuervo Especial Silver is a Mexican Silver Tequila (Mixto), bottled at 38% ABV. It comes from the same distillery as Especial Gold, La Rojeña in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, where the José Cuervo family has produced tequila since 1795.

  The Silver expression is double distilled and bottled straight after distillation, without any time in barrel. As a mixto tequila, at least 51% of its sugar source comes from blue agave, the rest from other sugars, giving it a light, direct profile built to mix well with citrus, salt and ice.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  The nose is clean and direct, with cooked agave, citrus peel and a hint of black pepper.

  Palate

  The palate opens soft and slightly sweet, with agave up front, before vanilla and light herbal notes appear mid-palate.

  Finish

  The finish is short and clean, with a touch of pepper spice and a flash of mint, without any heavy cask influence.

  Jose Cuervo Tradicional Gold Reposado Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10158

  Six months in oak isn't long by tequila standards, but it's enough to give Tradicional Gold Reposado its soft, golden character — without ever letting the agave fade into the background.

  Expert Description

  Jose Cuervo Tradicional Gold Reposado is a Mexican Reposado Tequila made from 100% agave, rested in oak barrels and bottled at 38%.

  Like Tradicional Silver, the bottle comes from La Rojeña in Jalisco, where the Cuervo family has distilled since 1795. Many people know Cuervo through the yellow Especial — a mixto tequila with only 51% agave — but Tradicional Gold Reposado is distilled solely from blue agave. After distillation it rests for six months in oak barrels, which gives it a light golden colour and a rounder, more complex flavour than a Blanco Tequila.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Agave, oak, honey and citrus, spiced with an earthy touch of dried herbs.

  Palate

  Medium-bodied with a slightly oily richness, where roasted agave, pineapple and oak meet black and white pepper along with a hint of vanilla.

  Finish

  The finish opens mild with agave and vanilla before closing on a warm, peppery note.

  Jose Cuervo Tradicional Silver Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10157

  The sun beats down on the blue agave fields of Jalisco, and somewhere between the shredding, the roasting and the distillation hides a clarity the rest of the tequila world still measures itself against. No barrel, no detours — just agave, straight into the glass.

  Expert Description

  Jose Cuervo Tradicional Silver is a Mexican Blanco Tequila made from 100% agave and bottled at 38%.

  The bottle comes from La Rojeña, the oldest continuously operating distillery in Latin America, where the Cuervo family has distilled tequila since 1795. Tradicional isn't the same as the well-known yellow Especial — where Especial is a mixto tequila with only 51% agave and the rest cane sugar, Tradicional Silver is distilled solely from blue agave, with no added sugar sources. That gives it a cleaner, more direct agave character that's still easy to drink and a natural fit for a Margarita.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Herbaceous and green, with fresh citrus, a touch of honey and a hint of white pepper.

  Palate

  A fine balance between sweetness and spice on the palate, with grapefruit, lime and a light mineral undercurrent.

  Finish

  The finish is short, sweet and refreshing, with one last hint of pepper.

  Specifications

  Did You Know?

  Did you know that Cuervo itself recommends storing Tradicional Silver in the freezer? The alcohol content keeps it from freezing solid, so it stays crisp, ice-cold and full of flavour — perfect for a quick, clean shot.
