Amazing shooter, or great for a Mexican coffee! Cinnamon “Hot Donkey” is a 100% Agave Reposado with only Mexican cinnamon and organic agave sugar added. And it's less than ½ the sugar of similar cordials, so it's not overly sweet syrup! Also check out the fun (fake!) heritage story at www.sparkledonkey.com. Imported by Black Rock Spirits. • 100% Blue Weber Agave. • Aged 8 months in “wet” whiskey barrels, imparting elements of vanilla, caramel, and spice. The barrels are brought across the border and filled within 3 days so they stay wet, imparting a "bourbon wash" character. • Distilled in the town of Tequila, in the heart of Jalisco, Mexico• 50/50 Valley/Highland mix to blend pepper/earthy and sweet/fruit character of each region.• Selective agave harvesting to pick superior quality piñas: - 6-14 years old, minimum of 21 brix , avg. 28 brix sugar content. - Trimmed close to the heart to eliminate any oily/waxy taste.• Cooked in a traditional hornos for 36-54 hours to retain sweet mellow flavors.• No diffusor usage - only traditional maceration.• Proofed with pure volcanic well water, directly from springs of the “Volcán de Tequila” • Drop of roasted agave miel added post-distillation to add smoothness • Unique post-distillation oxygenation (akin to "letting a wine breathe") reduces volatile compounds for a smooth finish
