Jose Cuervo Black Marguerite

This August 2009 hosted the launch of the latest addition to the Jose Cuervo Familia, Jose Cuervo Black, focusing on a slightly more mature target market offering a step up in quality, taste and class, ideal for those who wish to show that they have grown up, not old.

Jose Cuervo Black is aged in charred white American oak barrels for 18 months which softens the agave notes and introduces consumers to a more full bodied Tequila reminiscent of an aged bourbon. Its time in the barrels imparts a deep amber hue to the liquid and aromas of toasted oak, cinnamon, red apple, cocoa and coffee. The taste is thus slightly sweeter than you’d expect but without distracting from the subtle agave notes associated with Tequila. The finish is warm and smooth.

I have included a number of tasty canapé options to pair with Jose Cuervo Black.
