Fuentaseca Reserva Cosecha 2010 7 Year Old Extra Anejo Tequila

The seven year expression of Fuenteseca extra añejo was distilled in 2005 and aged in two different barrel types. Most of the distillate (80%) was placed into American white oak barrels that previously held California red wine; the rest (20%) was poured into dark French oak barrels. The spirit was distilled at NOM 1146 in alembic stills made of copper and stainless steel, and the barrels were held at high elevation (3,800') in a cool climate.

Finish: This is a wonderful tequila that invites repeated sips to allow its complexity to unfold.
