Partida Reposado Tequila

Tequila: Partida ReposadoPartida is known for having complete control over its production from field to bottle. The estate-grown agave used to make it is aged 7 – 10 years in a section near a dormant volcano in the Tequila Valley of Jalisco, Mexico. It’s aged six months in ex-Jack Daniels barrels.Size: 750MLProof: 80 (40% ABV)Origin: MexicoDistillery: David Partida Zuniga / Destiladora Mexicana NOM 1454Distinguished from the rest of the Partida range by its lime-green neck label and ‘spirit bird’ logo, this reposado is aged for 6 months in ex-bourbon barrels. The empty casks are hot-washed twice with distilled water so only a little of the ‘toast’ whiskey character is left to influence the tequila.Partida Reposado Tequila Tasting NotesNose: Spicy caramel, fudge and vanilla.Palate: Initially incredibly smooth, almost creamy. The flavour and character quickly builds with the fudgy vanilla notes from the nose joined by warm, spicy, piny, drier elements.Finish: Hints of bitter dark chocolate and dry hazelnut and walnut lead into a bone dry finish that is strangely rewarding with hints of cigarette ash, nuts and smoke.
