The Caballito Cerrero Azul Añejo 750ML is a destilado de agave produced by the renowned Tequila brand founded by Alfonso Jimenez Rosales in Amatitan, Jalisco. This expression is crafted using agaves grown exclusively on the family's land, including maguey Azul (Agave tequilana) and maguey Chato (Agave angustifolia). It has been aged for an impressive five years in American White Oak barrels.

While not officially certified as tequila or mezcal, the Caballito Cerrero Azul Añejo offers a taste profile that closely resembles the unique spirit that gained fame as 'Vino de Mezcal de Tequila' in the late 19th century.

  • Finish: The finish is long-lasting, warming, and characterized by lingering pepper and spices. It concludes with a slightly musty bitterness, providing a unique and memorable ending to the tasting experience.

The Caballito Cerrero Azul Añejo 750ML embodies the craftsmanship and dedication to quality associated with the brand. Although it is not certified as either tequila or mezcal, it offers a remarkable spirit that pays tribute to the historic 'Vino de Mezcal de Tequila.'

    What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?

    Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.

    Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.

    One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.

    Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.

    In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
