Following harvest, the hearts of the mountain agave undergo a meticulous three-day roasting process in brick ovens, caramelizing the inherent sweetness and imparting a toasted smokiness to the mash. This is followed by pot-distillation and a three-year maturation period in American bourbon casks. This process, coupled with the selection of premium refill bourbon barrels, reflects the established practices of renowned Scottish single malt whisky producers, aligning the 44 with this esteemed tradition.
The resulting spirit exhibits rich caramel and vanilla notes derived from the bourbon casks, complemented by the oak’s baking spice flavors and the agave’s inherent pepper spice. The 44 presents an exceptional pairing for bold, spicy cigars, and is poised to captivate enthusiasts of long-aged scotch and bourbon. For those seeking a distinguished gift, the Reserva 44 is an excellent choice.
