Detailed Description
Hussong’s Platinum Añejo Tequila is made of 100% blue weber agave and twice distilled in stainless steel stills. It is aged in bourbon barrels for 15 months and filtered to a crystal clear appearance. It is hand-bottled in clay jugs and cork-sealed to reflect the spirit of the Baja California Peninsula. Produced at NOM 1489 Destileria Leyros, S.A. de C.V., it is bottled at 40% ABV.
Hussong Platinum Añejo Tequila Tasting Notes
Nose: This añejo tequila pours a crystal clear color as a result of its filtration, although on nosing the spirit there are very few of the category’s telltale aromas of vanilla and spice. Rather, the tequila smells of mint, jalapeño, and a bit of wood pulp — not unpleasant but certainly not typical.
Palate: The palate seems a bit thin and lacks both oak and agave flavors.
Finish: The finish has a light spice but is ultimately a bit dilute.
