Corrido Tequila with Yuri Kato/Pinnacle Imports

Tequila tasting on a friday morning. how fun is that. Corrido is from the highland regions of Tequila. These tequila are single barrel and when aged, aged in jack daniels and makers mark barrels.
Corrida is spanish for folk music.. which explains the penis guitar sprouting from the agave plant on the bottle.


Blanco has no age in oak... smoky notes. floral with the smoky taste followed by tropical fruit.. bananas especially

Reposado aged for 6 months in jack and makers barrels.  seemingly butterscotch on the palate... and definitely more heat on the tongue

Anejo..one year aged in both jack and makers and one other barrel that is not disclosed. salty air nose.. lots of viscosity .. a softer pretty tequila than the Reposado

Extra Anejo.. a new classification for tequila aged 3 years. barreled in all makers mark barrels. golden yellow and a more iodine.. honey nose.. hints of tropical fruit again and chocolate. almost twice as expensive as the anejo.
