This Cascahuin Tahona Barrica Uno 1 Reposado Tequila is a must for any agave spirit collector. It is the result of a project where the same base spirit was aged in 4 different barrels to specifically showcase the impact of the barrel on the final product. The project extends the level of transparency with QR codes on each bottle giving access to full production details, ageing and laboratory analysis. Don't miss this opportunity.
A true family owned tequila which has been produced since 1904. Cascahuin is now led by the 4th generation of family members. Produced in the Tequila valley, only the highest quality agaves are selected which reflects in the authentic flavours in the bottle. Cascahuin only uses traditional and artisanal techniques throughout its production and is influenced by the skill of the master distiller to achieve that incredible flavour.
It is an American oak barrel that arrived at the distillery approximately 15 years ago. In 2016 it was re-charring, a method used to reactivate the maturation of aromas and flavors in the barrel.
