This is Tequila in its most potent and individual form. Each bottle comes from a solitary, hand-selected American white oak barrel and is bottled without dilution, capturing the spirit exactly as it existed inside the wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an ABV typically ranging from 51% to 53% (by barrel), this expression is for the enthusiast who wants to experience the \"High Definition\" version of Lowland Tequila. It is additive-free, artisanal, and produced in extremely limited quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Look: Rich, deep copper with brilliant golden reflections. Because it is unfiltered and high-proof, it possesses an incredible viscosity that creates thick, slow-moving \"tears\" on the glass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Nose: A high-octane aromatic experience. Initial notes of intense cooked agave and toasted oak are followed by heavy baking spices—cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. You’ll find a deep, savory undercurrent of leather and roasted walnuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Palate: A massive, mouth-coating arrival. The heat is present but remarkably well integrated, carrying flavors of dark salted caramel, butterscotch, and espresso beans. The volcanic minerality of the El Arenal soil shines through as a peppery, earthy mid-palate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Finish: Explosive and exceptionally long. It leaves a lingering warmth of charred oak, anise, and a sweet-smoky agave nectar that lingers for minutes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy It’s a Collector’s Choice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is Atanasio with the volume turned all the way up. Because it’s a single barrel, no two releases are identical. One barrel might lean into the sweet vanilla of the oak, while another showcases the spicy, herbal 'green' notes of the agave.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eServing Recommendations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eNeat (With Water): Start neat to feel the power, then add a few drops of room-temperature water. This \"opens up\" the spirit, releasing hidden floral and citrus notes that are otherwise tucked behind the high alcohol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eThe Glass: Use a wide-bottomed glass or a brandy snifter to allow the alcohol vapors to dissipate and the complex aromatics to take center stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Pairing:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest enjoyed alongside dark chocolate (70%+ cocoa) or a high-quality cigar, both of which complement the rich tannins of the single barrel aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sftequilashop.com\/collections\/nom-1599\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOM 1599\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"San Francisco Tequila Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55256690557096,"sku":"7503035572151","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/9764\/6760\/products\/atanasio-tequila-reposado-750ml-700363.jpg?v=1696905580","url":"https:\/\/sftequilashop.com\/products\/atanasio-cask-strength-single-barrel-reposado-tequila-750ml","provider":"San Francisco Tequila Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
