Herradura Plata Tequila (700ml / 40%)
Description
Created in 1963, Herradura Plata is made from 100% Tequilana Weber Blue Agaves. Following the strict law of the CRT (tequila regulatory body), this plata is aged for less than 59 days in white oak barrels giving it a slight amber colour. The result is a mellowed, full bodied blanco tequila. Perfect for sipping.
AROMA: Strong cooked agave with hints of vanilla
TASTE: This is something unusual, a "white" tequila with distinct wood-derived notes, not aged for long enough to be a reposado. The brief aging complements the agave character nicely; rather than smoothing off some of the rough edges, the barrel spice actually accentuates the raw, vegetal character of this tequila, contributing notes of black pepper, coriander, and sandalwood. Great in citrus-based drinks where you want a little more complexity, but a reposado would be out of place.
BARREL: Average 45 days in white oak
ENJOY: In incredible cocktails for a unique twist
