Proof
  • The Barricas Series is a limited-edition run from Alma del Jaguar featuring several expressions each finished/aged in distinctive international casks.

  • The specific one you asked about is the Añejo finished in Japanese mizunara (water oak) casks. The brand calls this the “first ever tequila Añejo fully aged in mizunara oak casks”.

  • Limited release: only ~800 cases for this Mizunara-cask version.
  • Rarity of mizunara oak in tequila: Mizunara is more commonly associated with Japanese whisky. It is rare and difficult to work with (more porous, can leak, expensive) which makes its use in tequila rather novel.
  • Nose: sandalwood, incense, coconut, honey, vanilla, perhaps jasmine/flower notes.
  • Palate: The cooked agave of the base tequila is still present, but with stronger wood‐derived flavors: warm spice, vanilla‐oak, toasted coconut, maybe dried fruit and dark caramel.
