Estate Blue Weber, Lowlands. Our methodology favours estate control and mature agave.

Tasting notes
Nose. Cooked agave, vanilla.
Palate. Butterscotch, olive.
Finish. Oak spice.
The traditionalist blanco rested in American oak long enough to gain warmth without losing the tahona character underneath.
