Reserva de la Familia® starts with the finest 10-year old, hand-selected agave plants from the estate's richest soil. Only the most flavorful inner portion of the agave's piña (heart) is used. Reserva de la Familia® is an extra-anejo Tequila (ultra-aged) which matures in barrels stored in the Cuervo family's private cellar, which is constructed out of volcanic stones to create the perfect temperature and humidity conditions.
First nosing passes pick up incredibly zesty and harmonious aromas of dill, fennel and pepper; another seven minutes sees the bouquet turn elegant, oaky and herbal. Palate entry is semisweet, with deft traces of caramel and vanilla; by midpalate the flavors include marzipan, hard candy, dried herbs, green pepper and vanilla. Finish is long, luxurious and stately. A brandy-like Tequila that s slightly richer than the terrific 2002 Reserva de la Familia.
