7 years in the making. So proud of this incredible brand. Chad and Cristina are some of the most involved, hardworking, and kind owners I’ve seen in the industry. This XA spent 7 years in barrels. That’s a long time to store something without any return and losing product with each year that passes. They were kind enough to give me a sample of it and I love it. Such a testament to their partnership with Felipe. I’m sure this will carry a strong MSRP but if it’s in your budget and you want something special that only had 1200 bottles or so, this is for you. Congrats guys
Tried at Sabor Y Cultura Chicago This is my second highest rated XA
gorgeous nose and palate wow
Like everything that Volans puts out, this is exceptional! Obviously at seven years in a barrel there is a pretty heavy wood influence, however, it’s well balanced with plenty of sweet cooked agave presence. On the nose I get oak, baking spices, cinnamon and some burnt caramel. The palette has noticeable wet wood characteristics, honey, black pepper with the unforgettable 1579 dna. This is a special treat. Let it open up in your glass and revisit several times. Congrats, Volans team on another home run!
6 Years in American Oak Barrels and one Year Finished in French oak 42.3% ABV stabilized in stainless steel tanks for 6 months. This a very special bottle, last of some of the old lots from el Pandillo back when we started the brand back in 2016- 2017 we are extremely proud and there’s only 1,234 bottles total. labels and boxes were hand made, in collaboration with our very talented friend Eduardo Mejia. It has so many beautiful details, is perfect for an avid collector of rare bottles. 10/10 good! Price reflects the hard work to make such small and unique Volans Tequila limited edition.
Man this is delicious just wish the cost wasn’t so high. Agave is still there, barrel notes are sweet oak vanilla and caramel /brown sugar. Light pepper finish
Tasted at Sabor y Cultura Chicago. Delicious!
