Sierra Gold Tequila 750ml

The journey of Sierra Gold begins with the selection of mature blue agave plants, cultivated for over eight years in Jalisco’s fertile soils. Once harvested, the agave hearts are slow-baked to extract their rich sugars. The extracted juices undergo fermentation before being double-distilled in traditional copper pot stills. This method preserves the agave’s natural flavours while introducing a refined smoothness. Post-distillation, the tequila rests for nine months in toasted oak barrels, a period that imparts its distinctive golden colour and enhances its flavour profile.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: A harmonious blend of sweet spices, patisserie notes, candied fruits, and fragrant herbs.

Palate: An initial sweetness reminiscent of vanilla and caramel, complemented by subtle hints of wild herbs and a touch of spice. The mouthfeel is smooth, leading to a warm and enduring finish.
