Calle 23 is a highland tequila from Jalisco. Its creator, French-born biochemist Sophie Decobecq, distils each expression separately (Blanco, Reposado, Aejo) to its own special recipe. Her tequilas are double-distilled and she uses Bourbon casks from Kentucky. This anejo tequila is aged 16 months. It features a very satisfying agave rich palate featuring salty and buttery vanilla garnished with oaky smoke.

Established in 1870, Casa Herradura, located at Hacienda San Jose del Refugio, is the last tequila-producing Hacienda on the planet.

As you sip you will enjoy and discover more fruits with some floral undertones. Super smooth and creamy with a wonderful banana and coconut finish. A very sophisticated sipping tequila.

Cincoro Tequilas stand apart as a truly unique creation, meticulously crafted using Weber blue agave sourced from both the highland and lowland regions. What sets Cincoro apart is the careful separation of the agave, which is cooked and distilled separately before being expertly blended to create a singular, exceptional tequila. Building upon the award-winning foundation of Cincoro Blanco, Cincoro Añejo undergoes a remarkable aging process, maturing in barrels for over two years. This extended aging takes the tequila beyond the realm of fresh agave flavors, infusing it with the deep richness of toasted oak. The result is a captivating copper-coloured spirit that unfurls a symphony of flavors. From the moment it graces the palate, Cincoro Añejo reveals an evolving masterpiece of fresh-cut wood, notes of maple, hints of dark chocolate, and a subtle touch of black pepper. Its complexity is truly a thing of beauty. Cincoro Añejo deserves to be savoured in its purest form, without the dilution of ice. Allow the tequila to take centre stage and appreciate its depth and character. For those who prefer cocktails, keeping it classic with an elevated Old Fashioned allows the tequila to shine while adding a touch of sophistication. Cincoro Añejo's exceptional quality and craftsmanship have not gone unnoticed. It was crowned Tequila of the Year at the esteemed 2019 New York International Spirits Competition, solidifying its position as a true standout in the world of tequila.

With Xicaru Silver 102° they honour the tradition of master mezcaleros, who prize the concentrated characteristics of high-proof mezcals. Selecting a smaller cut from the heart of the distillate gives Xicaru Silver 102° a bolder, more robust flavour.Xicaru Silver 102° differs from Xicaru Silver in the way it is distilled. A narrower cut is taken from the heart, where the alcohol, smoke and maguey are more concentrated. Xicaru Silver and Xicaru Silver 102° both utilize traditional mezcal production methods passed down from generation to generation.The crisp, high proof of Xicaru Silver 102° asserts itself in all aspects, dominating on the nose and palate before gradually softening to the rich, smoky and vegetal notes of traditionally-produced, artisanal mezcal. The finish is warm and lasting.

About 10 years have passed since the blue agaves in this tequila first stretched their leaves towards the hot Mexican sun, can you imagine? An agave must grow for 8 to 10 years before it can be harvested for tequila production. This is followed by the cooking process and then fermentation, which in turn takes several days. This tequila then matures in carefully selected bourbon oak barrels for at least 8 months. The most important ingredient in our tequila is undoubtedly time. The result: a delicate vanilla taste, a hint of raw and cooked agave, very present, very pleasant in the finish ...
