SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Casa
Noble announced the latest addition to its extensive portfolio of
first class tequilas. Casa Noble Selección del Fundador Volume II
is a triple distilled, extra añejo, which has been aged for eight
years in new Taransaud 114-liter French white oak barrels to
impeccably develop its complex, elegant character.
Available December 1, with only
300 bottles available worldwide, the luxury limited-edition Casa
Noble Selección del Fundador Volume II celebrates Casa Noble's rich
history and the always forward-looking vision of the brand's
founder and maestro tequilero, Jose "Pepe" Hermosillo, as well as
his creativity and expertise. Selección del Fundador Volume II is
certified organic, and has been made with 100% Blue Weber agave
plants, originally planted in 1997 to commemorate the founding of
Casa Noble.
"My desire is to take tequila to the next level, to see what
it can be," adds Jose "Pepe" Hermosillo. "Selección del
Fundador Volume II is an exquisite spirit showcasing our philosophy
that making exceptional tequila is truly a noble pursuit. This
tequila has been 20 years in the making, I hope people can enjoy
sharing this treasured creation with us."
The liquid itself is a warm, harmonious spirit full of character
and elegant complexity. The French white oak barrels impart a rich
amber color with a savory and silky mouth feel. Intricate aromas of
cooked agave layered with chocolate, butter, and vanilla give way
to subtle notes of dried fruit, sweet flowers, and cinnamon to
enhance the experience like no other.
Recently named "Tequila Producer of the Year" at the 2016
International Spirits Challenge, Casa Noble is one of the few
certified organic and kosher tequilas on the market today. The
product is made in small batches and always triple distilled -
going beyond industry standards. Selección del Fundador Volume II
is no exception and has an MSRP of $1,499.00.
