Código 1530, an additive-free tequila, has launched Código 1530 Cristalino Reposado.
The new Cristalino consists of the brand’s Reposado aged in French White Oak Cabernet wine barrels, blended with Código’s 6 year “Origen” Extra Añejo and finished in French Cognac casks.
“Since we are a single NOM distillery (NOM 1616) we had the freedom and resources to create a completely unique cristalino unlike any other on the market,” says Federico Vaughan, Co-Founder and COO. “We had a lot of fun testing different blends and finishes before declaring the Reposado and Extra Añejo blend as the winner.”
Aromas include vanilla, roasted hazelnuts and agave, the company reports. On the palate is cooked agave, with hints of caramel, vanilla, and hazelnut, before some light cocoa on the finish.
Código 1530 Cristalino Reposado is available at retailers in the U.S. for a suggested retail price of $89.99 per 750-ml. bottle.
