"Del Porto" - Extra Añejo Aged in Port Wine Barrels

ABOUT

80 Proof (ABV 40%) | 750ml  Bottle Size |

This tequila is the first of its kind and is from Ricardo Gamarra’s personal collection. This Extra Anejo double barrel rested tequila. A in the newly-acquired port barrels from Portugal. 

Bottled in a crystal decanter he discovered in an 18th century castle in Europe, this decanter took the efforts of Ricardo, and Italian artist Luciano Gambaro, over two years to recreate.

Del Porto's final resting place comes in the form of a beautiful handmade cedar humidor to present the world's most exclusive tequila.

TASTING NOTES

Del Porto’s texture is smooth and silky while the aroma inhibits a semi-sweet, yet oaky persona; palate entry is oaky with floral undertones, while the mid-palate gives way to a toffee with a sweet port.

 “Aromatic and smooth, with toasted vanilla and honey notes (not to mention some nice heat), this tequila shows amazing depth, complexity, and length.”
