Caballito Cerrero Cask Strength Single Barrel PLDC Reposado Azul Tequila

Bold, unfiltered, and unapologetically authentic—this Single Barrel Cask Strength Reposado Azul from Caballito Cerrero is a true distillery standout. Hand-selected by PLDC, it pours out of a single ex-bourbon barrel (Barrel #9) at a gutsy 99 proof, offering an unmatched expression of agave terroir and craftsmanship. Produced in Amatitán’s storied Santa Rita distillery (NOM 1114), this release honors tradition while daring to defy conventions as a “destilado de agave,” standing proud outside regulatory borders.

Nose: Velvety agave fused with buttery caramel, soft oak, and spicy agave nectar that rises with confidence.

Palate: Rich waves of cooked agave sweetness, spicy black pepper, banana warmth, and a velvety mouthfeel that’s sinewy yet inviting.

Finish: Long, lingering, and creamy—classic and intense, this reposado basks in its refined simplicity and depth.

Pair with roasted pork tacos or grilled lamb; the agave’s sweet heat and oak spice amplify savory char.

Dark chocolate or cinnamon-spiced desserts echo the tequila’s caramel and warm pepper notes.

Aged cheeses with a nutty edge—like Manchego or aged Gouda—create harmony with the spirit’s buttery complexity.
