Distiller Notes
Introducing Código 1530’s first-ever double barrel-aged Rosa-Reposado tequila with country icon George Strait. Long before the tequila had a name, country music icon George Strait had been drinking this private tequila for years. He even wrote a song about it. George Strait is offering this very limited edition bottle of his new Código 1530 Rosa-Reposado Tequila for his fans to enjoy.
This Limited Edition Código 1530 Rosa-Reposado tequila started its aging process in the finest French white oak Cabernet wine barrels, then finished in Spanish Sherry wine barrels to add extra character and a soft, sweet finish.
Tequila Reposado refers to Tequilas that have been ‘rested’, or aged, in oak barrels for a minimum of two months but not more than one year. Depending on the specific flavors a tequilero wishes to impart on the spirit, a variety of different barrels may be used, from Brandy and Bourbon, to Wine and Sherry. The time spent on the wood allows Reposado Tequilas to mellow as they age, softening and rounding powerful flavor components brought by the agave and marrying them to subtle notes of caramel and vanilla brought by the barrel itself.
