El Caballito Cerrero
El Caballito Cerrero Añejo 5 Años
El Caballito Cerrero Añejo 5 Años is a machita agave spirit aged for five years. It presents aromas of red fruits, floral berries, and brown sugar with mild oak and pine notes. The palate offers silky spice, vanilla, and dried cherries alongside a musky, woody character. A rich finish reveals roasted nuts and orange peel citrus. While the aging adds barrel spice, it does not dominate the agave profile. The spirit maintains a distinct identity through its balanced sweet and acidic notes, resulting in a viscous texture that coats the mouth nicely without becoming overly astringent.
