San Matias Gran Reserva Special Edition Rey Sol Finished Extra Anejo

Tequila San Matias de Jalisco (NOM-1103), Ojo de Agua de Latillas, Jalisco

45%

 

Special release of the already amazing San Matias XA, aged for three years in French oak and finished in barrels that previously held their top of the line, Rey Sol tequila.  Then to cap it off, bottled at 45%.

 

If you haven't had the regular release San Matias XA, it goes a little like this:

Best bang for your buck extra anejo, hands down.  Pale amber color. Sweet aromas of dried tropical fruits, brown spices, suede, and maple nut fudge. A very smooth and supple entry leads to a fruity medium-to-full body of creamy toffee, brown spices, pepper, and leather. Finishes with an elegant praline, mineral, and white pepper fade.  36 months aging in French Oak.
