Tequila: Herradura Silver Earned Gold medal in “SIP Awards Gold Medal” 2014 . Size: 750mL Proof: 80 (40% ABV) Origin: United States Distillery: Herradura distillery Despite being made in one of the region’s largest distilleries, Herradura tequilas are made from agaves roasted in traditional clay ovens and fermented with ambient yeast. The unusual greenish-straw color is due to a brief (45 day) period of aging in well-seasoned American oak barrels. Herradura Silver Tequila Tasting Notes Nose: Robust, full of fruit and cooked agave, pulling in vanilla and slightly woody notes from the barrel. Palate: Distinctly sweet agave, mellowed slightly by the woody notes of the oak barrel. Finish: Leaves your mouth feeling smooth and clean, finishing with invigorating warmth.
