Maestro Dobel is again once more with one other ultra-luxe tequila bottling within the Dobel 50 lineup, this one known as Dobel 50 Silver Oak. The idea this time round takes a 100% agave additional anejo Lowlands tequila and finishes it in Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon wine barrels. So far as manufacturing particulars go, that’s about all we’ve.
Let’s see the way it fares.
The wine affect makes a modest however noticeable impression on the nostril, lending notes of raisins, peppery spice, and cinnamon to an undercoat of pastry dough and lemon curd. That pepper begins to showcase some greener agave components with time in glass, however they’re delicate and well-integrated with the extra festive aromatics within the combine. The palate exhibits off extra of the identical, lip-smackingly candy however held up towards a physique that feels reasonably doughy, with an nearly gummy texture at instances. Some citrus builds on a core that evokes cinnamon sugar, caramel, vanilla, and lingering nutmeg components — all hallmarks of basic additional anejo tequilas — although the wine affect recedes fairly severely at this level. The conclusion leaves behind notes of coconut, muddled into vanilla syrup.
All instructed it presents itself like many an additional anejo — which is to say, it’s principally a sugar bomb ultimately. I definitely didn’t thoughts consuming it… however $1100 appears awfully excessive.
80 proof. NOM 1122.
