This is the premier release of the Mundial series, which explores the possibilities of tequila finished in various ex-spirits casks from around the globe. For this expression, Master Distiller Carlos Camarena worked closely with the Laphroaig distillery team to arrive at the final flavor profile, which was achieved by aging El Tesoro tequila for nine months in ex-bourbon barrels and then finishing the liquid for four months in Laphroaig 10-Year-Old casks.

Tasting Notes

"Only a faint whiff of rubbery smoke comes through the nose, which otherwise gives off aromas of cooked agave, lime zest, and caramel. The palate is roasty and soothing, with flavors of roasted coffee beans, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, sarsaparilla, and lime jam. The overall effect is a trifecta of earthy-smoky-sweetness with a pleasant puff of peatiness curling through the agave base flavors (but not smoking them out) into the finish. "
