Cascahuín Rare Cask Private Barrel Añejo – Calvados Finish

Cascahuín Rare Cask Private Barrel Añejo – Calvados Finish

Crafted by the renowned Cascahuín Distillery (NOM 1123) in El Arenal, Jalisco, this Rare Cask Private Barrel Añejo is an exclusive, single-barrel release finished in French Calvados casks. Matured for 16 months and bottled at 45% ABV, this expression showcases Cascahuín’s traditional tequila-making while introducing the elegant influence of apple brandy barrels from France.

Each bottle comes from an individual barrel, making every release unique. The Calvados finish adds layers of orchard fruit and spice without overshadowing Cascahuín’s signature cooked agave character.

Tasting Notes

Palate
A beautifully balanced profile of cooked agave, baked apple, butterscotch, vanilla, cinnamon, baking spices, roasted almonds, and light citrus, complemented by subtle oak tannins and the refined influence of Calvados casks.

Finish
Long, silky, and warming with lingering notes of caramel, apple pastry, toasted oak, gentle pepper, and sweet agave.
