Maestro Dobel Humito Smoked 100% Agave Tequila, 70 cl and World's First Smoked Tequila

Product Information

This category is aged for at least a year, but less than three, and is where you’ll really start to notice the influence of the barrel. Producers use everything from ex-bourbon to red wine or Scotch whisky casks to add subtle layers of caramel, toffee and oak on top of the fresh and peppery agave base. The magical, yet simple addition that makes this one impressive margarita is actual smoke, which creates a smoke infused smokey tequila, along with smoked salt! Another twist that I added to this smoked margarita sour is the foamy top, a key feature of a pisco sour.

One smoky tequila that is often praised is Fortaleza Blanco. This tequila is made from 100% blue agave and is distilled in small batches. It has a smoky flavor that is said to be reminiscent of roasted marshmallows. As always, a personal note. This tequila reminded me a lot in aroma and flavour of popcorn. Yes, I said popcorn. A weird one I know, how can tequila taste like popcorn? I don't know. Maybe it’s the butteryness or something. Either way, that’s what I get! Dobel, the premium tequila brand, partnered with homeware designers and glass crafters to create a limited edition 3 piece set of barware including a mixing jug, stirrer, and jigger. All inspired by Mexico. That’s Enrique de Colsa, the Master Distiller for Tequila Don Julio, describing the brand’s second foray into combining those two worlds, Tequila Don Julio Reposado, Double Cask. It’s a limited-edition reposado tequila finished in casks which previously held Lagavulin Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky.Expect satisfying bouquet of sweet caramel flavours with honey top notes, layered with the essence of fresh cut mesquite wood.

Let’s be honest, slamming a tequila from time to time is still fun, but the best-tasting, smoothest examples shouldn’t be smothered with salt and lime. Mezcal has been trending around the world for years now. Why should people give your smoked tequila a chance? I think both are great products, but the difference is taste. Mezcal, as you probably know, is more smoky. If you like this taste, it is a great product. With tequila, you taste more pure agave. Our smoked tequila is a little bit more balanced from the two. Then, the producers balance the roasted agave with traditionally cooked agave, before it is fermented and distilled twice. The world’s first smoked silver tequila, the creation of the clear liquid was sparked 200 years ago. It is 100% blue agave and its smokiness is achieved solely through channelling the complexity and richness of the environment.

Here’s a video tutorial that I love which uses an old coffee maker to make a DIY cold smoker. I have not made this myself, but I think it’s very clever! At this point, you might see how Lone River Ranch Water is the perfect fit for this Smoked Tequila Lime Burnt Ends recipe. I used their original seltzer, made with agave nectar and lime, along with some tequila and lime. Again, the sweet and citrus notes this adds to the burn ends is incredible. It brings a light freshness to the dish that would have been lost otherwise.
