Tasting Profile & Food Pairings
Taste Notes
- Nose: Subtle and inviting. Aromas of buttery caramel, toasted oak, and agave, with light notes of orange peel and vanilla.
- Palate: Round and well-balanced. It features a rich mouthfeel with flavors of butter toffee, mild spices, and a distinctive, faint hint of smokiness imparted by the toasted barrels.
- Finish: Smooth and refreshing. It exits with a lingering warmth of white pepper, marzipan, and sweet agave.
Food Pairings
- Savory: Grilled Carne Asada or Chicken Mole. The caramel and oak notes in the reposado perfectly complement charred meats and complex, earthy sauces.
- Cheese: Aged Manchego or Smoked Gouda. The nutty crystals in aged cheeses highlight the spirit's toffee and wood characteristics.
- Sweet: Churros with Chocolate Sauce or Caramel Flan. Its natural vanilla and butterscotch undertones act as a liquid extension of these classic Mexican desserts.
- Pro Tip: This is a highly versatile "workhorse" tequila. It is smooth enough to sip neat or on the rocks, but its 100% agave structure makes it the gold standard for an Elevated Margarita or a Tequila Old Fashioned.
About the brand
1800 Tequila is owned by the Beckmann family (who also own Jose Cuervo) and is named after the year tequila was first successfully aged in oak casks. Launched in 1967 as the world's first premium sipping tequila, the brand is famous for its iconic trapezoidal bottle—a design inspired by the ancient Mayan stone pyramids found throughout Mexico. Produced at NOM 1122 in Jalisco, 1800 is a "Super-Premium" pioneer, maintaining a 200-year-old recipe and using 100% Blue Weber agave grown in volcanic soil.
