Tasting note:
This is Codigo's first double-barrel tequila. The Blanco was first aged in uncharred fine French Oak and Cabernet wine barrels, then it was finished it Spanish Sherry wine barrels as a second aging step. The floral and citrus notes, along with the sweeter finish from the Sherry casks, give it a truly unique taste.
Nose: Buttery, toffee apple-like aromas with roasted agave and baking spice.
Palate: Sweet vanilla and caramel, woody, with hints of cedar, earth, soft spices, cassia and vegetal agave.
Finish: Just a hint of fruit sweetness on the tail, and distinct red bell pepper notes from the agave.
Nose: The aroma is light with notes of brine, dried leaves, and menthol.
Palate: The flavor profile opens with herbs — cilantro and sage — followed by bell pepper, cinnamon, candle wax, and a bit of vanilla.
Finish: The finish is medium-length and bold.
Nose: The nose is rich with fruity and floral agave notes.
Palate: The flavour is clean and refreshing with notes of angelica root.
Finish: The finish is light and floral.
Nose: Fruity, spiced aromas. Hints of green wood, zesty grapefruit and apple peel, with lots of distinct agave.
Palate: Manuka honey and roasted agave notes, balanced by a hint of lemon, grapefruit, a little rosemary and continuing spice.
Finish: Warming and spiced, with more of those citrus and agave flavours persisting.
Nose: Hints of caramel and mixed herbs. Slightly peppery.
Palate: Hints of roasted agave, sandalwood and spice. Cracked black pepper.
Finish: An oily, slightly sweet finish.
Nose: Scents of caramel, agave, honey and white pepper.
Palate: Spicy and sweet at the same time, touches of earthy agave, hints of vanilla and honey caramel sweetness.
Finish: Nice linger, full of pepper and spice, lingering sweetness of honey and caramel.
Nose: Almost earthy nose with soft spices and zesty citrus. Bright.
Palate: Dark sugar, hints of butterscotch, nutmeg, cedar and pepper.
