Cazcabel Honey Tequila

Cazcabel Honey Tequila: A Unique and Award-Winning Spirit - Explore the Sweet & Smoky Depths

The General Wine is proud to offer Cazcabel Honey Tequila, a world-first liqueur that brings together the finest Blanco tequila with the rich sweetness of natural honey. This innovative spirit hails from the mountains of Jalisco, Mexico, and boasts a unique flavour profile that has captured the hearts (and taste buds) of tequila enthusiasts worldwide.

A Blend of Tradition and Innovation:

Cazcabel, meaning "rattlesnake" in Spanish, pays homage to the legend of Don Cazcabel, a snake charmer known for his adventurous spirit. This tradition of embracing the unexpected continues with Cazcabel Honey Tequila. Unlike traditional tequilas that focus on the earthy agave flavour, Cazcabel Honey offers a delightful harmony between the crisp tequila and the smooth sweetness of honey.

Tasting Notes:

Aroma: As you raise the glass to your nose, the initial impression is one of earthy agave, a signature characteristic of good tequila. This is soon followed by a wave of warm, comforting honey with hints of caramel. The subtle smokiness, a hallmark of Cazcabel tequilas, adds a touch of complexity to the aroma.

Palate: The first sip of Cazcabel Honey Tequila delivers a burst of flavour. The sweetness of the honey is immediately apparent, but it's beautifully balanced by the dryness of the Blanco tequila. The agave character peeks through, adding a pleasant earthy depth. The smokiness is more pronounced on the palate, offering a subtle peppery warmth that lingers on the finish.

Finish: The finish of Cazcabel Honey Tequila is long and satisfying. The sweetness of the honey gradually fades, leaving behind a lingering warmth from the tequila and a touch of smoke.

Serving Suggestions:

Cazcabel Honey Tequila's versatility makes it a perfect addition to your home bar. Here are some suggestions to get you started:

• Neat or on the Rocks: Enjoy Cazcabel Honey Tequila in its purest form. Pour a shot neat to savour the full flavour profile, or serve it on the rocks for a slightly chilled and diluted experience.
• Honey Margarita: Give the classic margarita a delightful twist with Cazcabel Honey. Combine 30ml Cazcabel Honey Tequila, 20ml fresh lime juice, and 15ml orange liqueur in a shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain into a margarita glass rimmed with salt. Garnish with a lime wedge.
• Honey Paloma: This refreshing cocktail is perfect for warm weather. Combine 50ml Cazcabel Honey Tequila, 25ml fresh grapefruit juice, and a splash of lime juice in a highball glass filled with ice. Top with grapefruit soda and garnish with a grapefruit wedge.
• Honey Sour: For a tart and tangy experience, try a Honey Sour. Combine 45ml Cazcabel Honey Tequila, 30ml fresh lemon juice, 15ml simple syrup, and a dash of egg white (optional) in a shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain into a coupe glass.

Cazcabel Honey Tequila - Beyond the Cocktail:

While Cazcabel Honey Tequila shines in cocktails, its unique flavour profile makes it a delightful addition to various culinary creations. Here are some ideas:

• Drizzle Cazcabel Honey Tequila over fresh fruit salad or grilled pineapple for a touch of sweetness and complexity.
