Description
Crest Liquor Private Barrel Selection "Charli Rose"
Cascahuín Añejo – Four Roses Barrel Aged
NOM 1123 | 52% ABV (104 Proof)
Selected exclusively by Crest Liquor, this limited single-barrel release showcases the exceptional craftsmanship that has made Cascahuín one of the most respected names in traditional tequila production.
Produced from fully mature Blue Weber agave, this tequila was crushed using a traditional tahona and distilled with agave fibers intact, preserving the rich texture and authentic agave character that define Cascahuín's celebrated profile. The spirit was then aged for 12 months in a Four Roses bourbon barrel, allowing the influence of the oak to complement rather than overshadow the agave.
The nose opens with roasted agave and slight carmalized sugar and barrel influence. The palate is absolutely cooked agave with a big mouthfeel. I get a citrus lemon peel note to the flavor followed with vegetal and fruit. Bottled at a robust 52% ABV, the finish is long and expressive, carrying layers of bourbon sweetness, spice, and lingering agave richness.
Hand-selected by Crest Liquor, this exclusive single-barrel añejo represents the perfect balance of traditional tequila-making and world-class bourbon barrel maturation.

El Gran Legado Single Barrel Reposado – Willett Barrel Aged
NOM 1123 | 43% ABV (86 Proof)
Hand-selected by Crest Liquor, this exclusive Gran Legado Single Barrel Reposado offers a unique expression from the legendary NOM 1123 distillery, where traditional methods and uncompromising quality produce some of the most sought-after tequilas in the world.
Aged for 8 months in a carefully selected Willett bourbon barrel and bottled at 43% ABV, this reposado beautifully captures the intersection of agave purity and premium whiskey-barrel influence. The Willett cask contributes layers of sweetness, spice, and oak while preserving the vibrant character of the distillate.
The aroma reveals cooked agave, and that old school dusty agave flavor, accented by hints of cinnamon and citrus peel. On the palate, sweet agave is joined by honey, butterscotch, baking spices, toasted nuts, and subtle barrel char, creating a rich and balanced experience. The finish is smooth and rich. This is one of my favorite reposados and it goes fast.
Selected by Crest Liquor for its exceptional balance and complexity, this single-barrel reposado highlights the distinctive influence of a Willett bourbon barrel while celebrating the renowned craftsmanship of NOM 1123.
