Only the purest, blue Weber agave goes into this delicious Tequila, aged seven months in former whisky barrels. They lend gorgeous creamy caramel and vanilla notes to the peppery spice and citrus of this hand-crafted, classy Tequila. Great over ice.

This is a delicious, smooth Tequila, with intriguing flavours of caramel and vanilla, and a caressing silky texture and weight. The perfect dram over ice and equally good as a base for your cocktail. Its name means 'bolt of lightning' and in Mexican folklore, it was this lightning flash that struck blue agave on hills close to Tequila. A local camposino followed the glow and discovered its source was the 'cooked' agave. And so Tequila, the drink, was born! All the blue agave for El Rayo is hand-planted, grown for eight years, then hand harvested and crafted to ensure the purest of flavour. Herbal aromas with hints of almond, vanilla and caramel sweetness. Its taste combines this with a grassy, piney freshness, and a hint of peppery spice.
