Alma Del Jaguar Tequila Aejo

High Proof 102.4 – Single Barrel #19

Experience the unparalleled depth of Alma Del Jaguar Tequila Aejo High Proof 102.4, an exceptional single barrel expression (Barrel #19) crafted on a 5th-generation estate in the revered Los Altos de Jalisco. This tequila embodies purity, made with only agave, water, and yeast, and bottled unfiltered by hand at the source.

Aged for a remarkable 23 months in a combination of French and American White Oak barrels, this Aejo is bottled at a robust 51.2% ABV (102.4 Proof), delivering an intense and complex experience.

This tequila harmoniously blends two distinct styles: one fermented with wild yeast and the other with champagne yeast, resulting in a captivating mix of bold flavors and subtle sweetness. Inspired by a deep commitment to conservation, Alma Del Jaguar directly supports the Northern Jaguar Project, helping to protect these majestic animals and their natural habitats.

Tasting Notes:

• Taste: A powerful yet remarkably smooth entry, showcasing the high proof beautifully without harshness. Expect a delightful interplay of sweet agave, rich caramel, baking spices, and a nuanced fruitiness from the oak.

• Body: Full-bodied and velvety, coating the palate with a luxurious texture.
• Finish: Exceptionally long and warm, with lingering notes of sweet cooked agave, elegant oak, and a subtle spice that invites further exploration. The high proof contributes to a memorable and evolving finish.
