1800 Tequila is a Mexican brand of tequila owned by the Beckmann family, who also own the Jose Cuervo tequila brand. The 100% blue agave tequila is bottled in Jalisco, Mexico. 1800 is named after the year tequila was first aged in oak casks, and is sold throughout the world.
Rich amber in color with golden-copper hues, this añejo tequila delivers a luxurious blend of spiced orange, honeyed caramel, chocolate-covered orange, apricot, mocha, and a touch of cinnamon-pepper. A velvety, softly bitter palate evolves into fresh, persistent citrus on the finish, evoking memories of orange sorbet with caramel sauce.
Nose:
Invigorating aromas of fresh citrus orange, honey, caramel, wood, ripe fruit, with chocolate/orange cream notes accentuated by toasted oak and subtle spice.
Palate:
Smooth and velvety, the palate unfolds with rich flavors of spiced orange, vanilla caramel, honey, and bitters. Chocolate and mocha integrate with sweet cinnamon and black pepper, showcasing the oak influence.
Finish:
Medium to long with a warm, creamy echo of orange and caramel, finishing on gentle spice and a lingering citrus note.
