100% Puro de Agave, Aged in Albariño Wine Barrels from Rías Baixas, Spain
Escasa, which means "scarce" in Spanish, is an ultra-premium sipping tequila founded in 2024 by fourth-generation Master Distiller Graciela "Grace" Gonzalez. Every expression is made from 100% Blue Weber agave hand-selected from a different single estate each year in Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico, cooked for a minimum of 24 hours, fermented with heirloom yeast and bagazo fibers, and triple distilled.
The Reposado is what sets this expression apart: it rests in Albariño wine barrels from Rías Baixas, Spain, a first-of-its-kind choice for a tequila. The Albariño casks pair the earthy, cooked-agave character of the tequila with a layer of oak, molasses and baking spice. It arrives in a vivid orange, ceramic-style bottle embossed with an agave emblem and a geometric tile pattern, capped with an ornate silver stopper.
