Tasting Notes:
Authentico Blanco
Nose: You ever smell cotton sheets, right out of the dryer? That, plus a little pine, and a sprig of lilac.
Palate: Fresh agave, with a sprinkling of sea water. and a slice of green pepper. Finishes with a dollop of residual sweetness. Perfect in palomas and margaritas.
Authentico Reposado
Nose: This is the family-run ice cream parlor you visited as a kid. Strawberry. Waffle cone. Dulce de leche. Cravings activated.
Palate: You know those cinnamon almonds you buy at the fair? This is that, if they also tossed in some white pepper for vibes.
Aging: 8 month process. 6 months aged in American oak barrels.
Authentico Cristalino
Nose: Sit in a pine forest, surrounded by orange peels, while drinking chocolate milk. Then smell this. Same.
Palate: Colorless, but not flavorless! Take a lemon sugar cookie and dip it in hot cocoa. One of the only additive-free Cristalino's, too!
Aging: 9 month process. 6 months aged in American oak barrels.
