They produce three award-winning El Mayor Tequilas of exceptional quality \u2013 El Mayor Blanco, El Mayor Reposado and El Mayor A\u00f1ejo. These are now available in the UK from Amazon and Master of Malt.<\/p>\n<p>Each El Mayor Tequila offers its own distinct and refined character. El Mayor Blanco is clear and unaged. It has the most pronounced aroma of the range, and has the purest expression of the natural flavours of the agave for which this style is most prized. On the palate it\u2019s crisp with hints of both citrus peel, pepper and warming spice. The finish is dry and lingering. This makes a delightful cocktail base.<\/p>\n<p>El Mayor Reposado rests in white oak barrels for a minimum of 9 months. It is light in colour with classic agave flavour along with vanilla, brown sugar, tropical fruit and hints of spice. It is mellow and well balanced. Use this in all your favourite tequila cocktail recipes. \u00a0It will add refinement to your drinks.<\/p>\n<h4>Characterful and smooth<\/h4>\n<p>The increased ageing of El Mayor A\u00f1ejo adds so much to the profile of this tequila. The time spent in white oak barrels (18 to 36 months) provides a characterful and smooth tequila much appreciated by the connoisseur. Yes, it makes a great cocktail, but it\u2019s also delicious simply served neat or over ice to showcase its light and fruit-laden qualities. This is not a tequila for shots and drinking games. This is one to savour!<\/p>\n<p>Every bottle of El Mayor is made with 100% estate-grown Weber Blue Agave from the valley area of Jalisco, Mexico.\u00a0 This state is in the west of Mexico and on the Pacific coast, and is famed for its tequila production.<\/p>\n<p>Beautifully presented in bottles filled, labelled, and packaged by hand to ensure the ultimate quality and flavour, discover El Mayor Tequila (40% ABV) now at Amazon \u2013 El Mayor Blanco, \u00a339.55; and Master of Malt \u2013 El Mayor Blanco, \u00a346.95 (70cl), El Mayor Reposado, \u00a347.45 (70cl), El Mayor A\u00f1ejo, \u00a349.90 (70cl).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/elmayor.com\/\">Visit El Mayor here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not Just for Tequila Day.
