Casa Dragones Joven, Tequila (40%)

Casa Dragones’s calling card is its small-batch Joven, a star-bright blend of Blanco and extra-añejo tequila that combines the citrusy mineral tension of agave with a silky, creamy finish. The Reposado is rested in barrels made from mizunara, or Japanese oak, an incense-y type of wood that’s more often used in the maturation of upmarket Japanese malts.

This Joven Tequila shows a subtle floral and citrus aroma with notes of sweet roasted agave. The palate has hints of vanilla and a backdrop of spice showing beautiful complexity. The finish is perfectly balanced, with a myriad of flavours from pear to hazelnut and a rich length. The texture overall is rich and silky. One of the purest agave spirits I’ve had the joy to sample.
