About this deal

is rested for 7 months in ex-Bourbon barrels, smoothing out those crisp edges and bringing out its softer, warmer side. The sweeter notes and slight oak smoke from the barrel aged techniques come through and has a nice lingering finish. This particular expression is not made with lightning, but with 105 year old copper stills, which distil the agave twice before its bottled up. El Rayo Plata is a truly modern, truly delicious Tequila inspired by the new symbols, creativity and culture emerging Mexico that will put the sombrero to bed. On the nose is fresh and tangy, orange oils coming through thick and fast and unlike other bitter-led triple sec style liqueurs Cointreau is intensely sweet leading into a dry finish.

Petersham Cellar is a wine merchant that promotes an ever-evolving hand selected and carefully sourced selection of fine and rare wines from the most incredible regions of the world.There are over 200 varieties of agave but by law only the blue agave can be used in the production of tequila. This is the Reposado expression from Tequila El Rayo, which distils 100% Blue Weber agave in 105 year old copper stills and matured for seven months in casks that previously held whiskey before being bottled.

We can't offer refunds or exchanges on perishable goods such as flowers and food, unless faulty or not as described. Bottled on site in Jalisco and made of 100% agave, Arette Blanco is an exceptional silver tequila full of fresh flavours, spicy hints and a cheeky character in which you can pick out each single flavour note. Although less complex in flavours than it’s plata, the reposado is beautifully smooth and perfect to sip on. Overall, it's a vibrant tequila, with a citrus (almost tropical) note, fresh herbal tones and a peppery finish that pair perfectly with bittersweet taste of tonic water.

Both are made from 100% blue agave, which is grown for 8 years in the highlands of Mexico, before being twice distilled in 100% copper stills to draw out the raw plant freshness.

The myth describes how a local campesino witnessed this moment and followed the burning glow in the distance. The brand was created by two South Londoners who collaborated with some master producers to craft an agave alternative to gin. Fill your highball glass with lots of ice, pour over a healthy glug of your tequila of choice (40ml is El Rayo’s sweet spot), top with premium tonic, and garnish with a nice big wedge of grapefruit. Disappointing, because I bought this expecting it to be "Exceptionally smooth and gentle", which is a description far better suited for Cazadores Blanco, my current benchmark for smooth tequilas.Whether you team it with a simple long drink or use it to add complexity to a refined cocktail, it’s a flavour which lingers and freshens up any drink. The roasted agave really comes through nicely in this tequila, with lighter grassy notes and as others have said a savory kick that's hard to put your finger on. The name comes from Mexican folklore, a story of the origins of tequila and the bolt of lightning that started it all. Great body and wonderful for sipping or mixing into a wide range of different cocktails and long drinks.
