● What: Reposado, Joven, Añejo
● Where: Hedonism Wines, London
● With: brand owner Frank Acosta
Notes:
● Reposado: 9 months in French oak, sweet nutty, creamy, smooth, mellow, dangerously a-whole-bottle-finishable
● Joven: 1 month in French oak, floral, mildly gluey as in many jovens
● Añejo: 18 months in French oak, flavour profile quite similar to Reposado but more vertical on the palate and more elegant and complex
● All three show a long finish; quality is high
Price range: £200-300 per bottle
Will I buy? Certainly, an ideal gift for a tequila-loving very good friend!
