Skorpios 1618 Reposado Tequila

Skorpios 1618 is an additive-free tequila produced at NOM 1522 in Amatitán, in the Tequila Valley of Jalisco, from single-estate blue Weber agave that matures seven to ten years before harvest. The agave is slow-cooked in brick ovens, fermented open-air with natural yeast using deep well and spring water, and double distilled in copper pot stills, with no flavoring additives anywhere in the process. The Reposado rests six to twelve months in American oak barrels and is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) in a 750ml bottle. The producer describes it as delicate yet complex, with floral, earthy and briny notes, hints of wood, and a finish of caramel and butter, a profile they tie to both Jalisco's landscape and the Mediterranean the brand is named for. Wine Enthusiast's Kara Newman found the flavor skews distinctly herbal, with sage, mint and fresh tarragon that fade into mild coconut and vanilla sweetness with white pepper accents. Sip it neat or over a single large cube; it is too expressive to waste in a sugary mixer, though a reposado Old Fashioned would do it justice.
