A few months back I was sent 12 barrel samples from my friends at El Tesoro in Jalisco. I loved almost every one of them but as is the norm for me there was one that stood out amongst the rest. Of course, I should have known it was aged in bourbon barrel. This barrel was 11 months old so we labeled it as a Reposado.
El Tesoro is one of the oldest family run Tequila distilleries still around. I’m sure that why they still use the much more expensive Tahona method to crush the Pina’s. Most of the big houses are using a mechanical press now instead of the “Tahona” stone (A huge volcanic stone that is turned by mules). Usually this method is only reserved for the most expensive tequilas. To find one under $60 is pretty rare.
My second of two barrels, this one seems a little more lively. A bevy of citrus aromas pour out of this one with Maui Gold pineapple notes followed by a smooth mix of oak and vanilla. This is absolutely delicious to just sit with and sip but with an under $50/btl price tag, you might not be able to resist the temptation of pouring yourself a premium margarita.

This is a Nicholas Faithful favorite. Even though it’s technically a non-vintage it was last disgorged in the 2020 vintage. La Cravantine, is a sparkling rosé of 100% Cabernet Franc, bone-dry, super fresh and with bubbles so tiny and fine, it puts most “real” Champagne to shame. Appealing strawberry and mineral scents are encased in a firm structure with a dry and spicy quality in the palate. This wine is incredibly versatile – perfect with just about any fish, fried food, or do like I do and enjoy it on it’s own.

Bulleit isn’t usually one to come out with too many new or limited releases, but the ‘Frontier’ Limited Release bucks that trend. This American Single Malt was made with 100% malted barley, aged in new American spiced oak casks, and bottled at 43% alcohol. It hits with notes of freshly baked pumpernickel bread, candied orange, dried fruits, and maple syrup. She’s a beauty – just wish I had more to sell!
This is a very rare single barrel Bourbon Whiskey to make its way to Jersey. Maple syrup, butterscotch, caramel & brown sugar with a palate of caramel apple, roasted almond, ripe banana and graham crackers. This one has a full mouthfeel with a nice creamy middle. The finish here lingers with just the right amount of burn. This was born on 2/3/2017 and bottled at 102 Proof. This is a great bottle of Whiskey.
