Cazcanes No.9 Rosa Reposado is a limited-edition tequila that exemplifies the brand's dedication to artisanal craftsmanship and innovative aging techniques. This expression begins with their Still Strength Blanco, initially distilled at 54% ABV. The tequila is then aged for 82 days in first-fill French Oak casks that previously held Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, imparting a delicate pink hue and complex flavor profile. After aging, it is bottled at 50% ABV (100 proof), offering a robust yet refined tasting experience.
Tasting Notes:
Aroma: Bright and fresh, with notes of grapefruit zest and lemongrass.
Palate: Sustained minerality across the palate and finish, complemented by the fresh flavors of grapefruit zest and lemongrass.
This unique aging process introduces subtle fruity undertones and a hint of wine influence, enhancing the traditional characteristics of their Blanco. The result is a tequila that balances the boldness of its high proof with the elegance imparted by the wine cask finish.
