Description

Reserva 44 is an exquisite expression of Extra Añejo tequila that encapsulates the rich traditions of Los Altos, Jalisco. Crafted by AVION, this spirit begins its journey with agaves handpicked after 7 to 10 years of maturation. The agaves are thoughtfully roasted for 72 hours in brick ovens, allowing their natural sugars to caramelize and develop a deep complexity. This meticulous preparation sets the stage for a tequila of exceptional character. The distillation process is followed by Avión's distinctive ultra-slow filtration, enhancing the purity and smoothness of the spirit. Reserva 44 is then aged for 44 months, starting with 43 months in grand oak barrels to develop a robust and layered profile. The final phase involves an innovative aging technique in petite barrels, rotated daily during the last month, which imparts nuanced flavors and a refined texture. The result is a tequila with a luxurious interplay of rich oak, vanilla, and caramel, complemented by subtle hints of roasted agave and spice. This tequila is best savored neat in a caballito glass, allowing its complex aromas to fully blossom. Serve it at room temperature to appreciate the intricate layers that unveil themselves with each sip. While its sophistication shines when sipped on its own, Reserva 44's depth can also enhance classic cocktails such as a refined Margarita or a smooth Paloma, where its rich character adds a distinctive twist. Each bottle of Reserva 44 is hand-numbered and signed by founder Ken Austin, marking it as a unique piece of craftsmanship. Its elegance and intricate profile make it a perfect companion for thoughtful sipping or a centerpiece in sophisticated cocktails, offering a taste of the artisanal heart of Jalisco.

    Birthday pour on the porch. Warm night, bottle chilled, just right solo.

  • Luis Y. ★★★★☆

    Solid but a tad rich.

    Passed this around with my sister and brother in law after dinner. Smoothest tequila any of us have had, disappeared faster than I expected.
