Thanksgiving arrives in a couple of weeks, and people are gearing up for another weekend of good food, great company, and excellent drinks. Of course, let’s not forget the shopping on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Cazcane Tequila hopes to be part of your gatherings and celebrations with the Extra Añejo No. 10 Tributo Edition.
Only 3,650 bottles of exquisite agave-based spirit are hitting the market. Moreover, each ships in a wooden presentation box with two dazzling tequila glasses and a collector coin. If you ask us, this makes an excellent gift for folks who appreciate the nuances of this distinctly Mexican liquor. At still strength, it has a 54% ABV (108 proof).
The rustic design of the crystal vessel, its stopper, and neck tag all look awesome. Alongside the other items, everything is set against a backdrop of mountains and spiky agave plant rosettes. As the distillery points out, the Extra Añejo No. 10 Tributo Edition commemorates the first decade of its operations.
“Behind every bottle of Cazcanes is a decade of dedication: the agaveros who nurture each plant to full maturity, the jimadores who harvest by hand, and the distillery team who arrive before dawn.” The recipe calls for certified organic agave and volcanic spring water. The resulting concoction then ages in American Oak casks for three years.
Aromas of caramel, vanilla, ripe melon, black pepper, coffee, baking spice, honey, cooked banana, and baked agave fill your nose. While the palate is mostly similar, its finish is “long and lingering, with caramel, vanilla, cloves, tropical fruit and raisins.” The Extra Añejo No. 10 Tributo Edition exudes a color of rich honey/deep amber.
