Description

Storywood Añejo Tequila represents audacious Transatlantic fusion, crafted from mature 10-year-old 100% blue Weber agave harvested from Jalisco’s lowland valleys by master distiller Carlos Hernandez Ramos at La Cofradía. Double-distilled and aged 14 months in premium ex-Speyside single malt Scotch whisky barrels from Dufftown—formerly ex-bourbon casks—this radiant amber elixir marries Mexico’s earthy agave soul with Scotland’s elegant oak legacy. The commanding nose pirouettes with milk chocolate ganache, toasted hazelnuts, caramelised treacle toffee, roasted coconut, vanilla pod, and subtle Speyside orchard fruits. On the silken viscous palate, herbaceous lowland agave blooms alongside charred oak tannins, butterscotch caramel, ground cinnamon, pineapple confit, black pepper spice, and gentle woodsmoke whispers—all bound by glycerol refinement. The protracted finish resonates with toasted nuts, mocha cream, lingering agave earthiness, and harmonious charred oak resin. Unchillfiltered cask elegance shines neat in a Glencairn, over ice revealing hidden tropical secrets, or elevating a refined Tequila Old Fashioned; multi-award-winning testament to founder Michael Ballantyne’s Scotch-Tequila revolution for connoisseurs craving sophisticated hybrid complexity and batch-specific barrel stories.
