Item #: 14083

Product Notes:
Very aggressive nose with full agave aroma and overtones of oak and spice. Mouth feel is lean bodied, with clean agave flavor with hints of oak and a spiciness of black pepper.

About Estate:
The Tequilana Weber Blue Agave plant is the core and essence of Cabo Wabo Tequila. Rooted, according to legend, by falling stars, thus manifested the plantÆs blue tint and its reach to the sky. Though it can be hastily exploited over its lifetime, the agave plant typically matures and is harvested by the wisest farmers between the ages of 8-12 years. Until then, it is respected, nourished, bronzed and guarded by growers holding it in the highest esteem. Upon its harvest, an agave plant gives birth to the next generation through its raizomas or roots extensions, which are planted on new, but equally sacred, ground. The heart of the plant travels to the factory on its journey to becoming Cabo Wabo Tequila. At the factory, stone steam-heated ovens cook the hearts. The baked and cooled agave core is then smashed and grinded, and its honey-like nectar is removed and stored for fermentation.


Fermentation follows and is completely natural, with no chemicals added.
The Distillation to 110 proof is a two-step process using pure spring and well water- First, Breakage removes the larger impure particles to rid the bad, harsh flavor. Second, Rectification purifies, refines and improves the aroma and alcohol content.


Food Pairing:
Produced for rock singer Sammy Hagar, Cabo Wabo is an extremely smooth tequila that is perfect in margaritas or straight up with a wedge of lime.

About Varietal:
Tequila is usually bottled in one of five categories:
* oro ("gold") unaged tequila which is "joven y abogado" (young and adulterated) which means that caramel, fructose, glycerin and wood flavoring can be added to resemble aged tequila * a±ejo ("aged" or "vintage") û aged minimum 1 year but less than 3 years in oak barrels
* maduro ("mature," "ultra-aged," or "vintage") û aged minimum 3 year in oak barrels This is a new category which was established in March 2006, represented on the bottles as "Extra A±ejo".
The aging process changes the color of tequila, but the liquid can sometimes be colored with caramel to show a darker color, indicative of a longer aging process; a±ejos tend to be darker, the reposados slightly less dark, while the platas are not colored at all.[citation needed
It is a common misconception that some tequilas contain a 'worm' in the bottle. Only certain mezcals, usually from the state of Oaxaca, are ever sold con gusano, and that only began as a marketing gimmick in the 1940s. The worm is actually the larval form of the moth Hypopta agavis that lives on the agave plant. Finding one in the plant during processing indicates an infestation and, correspondingly, a lower quality product. (Note: for more information on how tequila is made, see mezcal.) However this misconception continues, and even with all the effort and marking to represent Tequila as a premium -- similar to the way Cognac is viewed in relation to brandy -- there are some opportunist producers for the shooters and fun market who blur these boundaries
