Blend
Each batch goes through different
mutations in different oaks.
65% of the blend was double-barreled in American (6.7 mos) & French oak (11 mos). Yielding the darkest in color, with district notes of caramel, cooked corn/caramel corn, vanilla and hints of smoke.
18% of the batch was aged only in American oak (20.7 mos). Light in color with notes of chalk and limestone.
17% of the batch (the rest) was aged exclusively in American oak (20.2 mos). Considerably darker in color, interesting combo of vanilla & vinegar.

Tasting notes
Banana, vanilla, cooked agave, oak, and a
blend of 3 different lots/batches, then
blended together: this is unique.
Each batch goes through different
mutations in different oaks.
Vinification
Open-air stainless steel tanks; agave fibers from milling process are added back to
fermentation to enhance complexity. Classical music is played during fermentation to
stimulate the yeast, so it dances.
