Monika Alcobev, one of India’s largest Alcobev import, marketing and distribution companies, recently launched Maestro Dobel Tequila, the world’s first Cristalino Tequila, in India. The brand offers six premium products: Diamante, Silver, Reposado, Anejo, Humito, Pavito and the legendary Maestro Dobel 50 Cristalino.
Dobel is a blend of 100% blue agave reposado, añejo and extra añejo Tequilas, packaged in 750-ml bottles, from a single estate in Jalisco, Mexico. The Tequilas are aged for 1, 2 and 3 years in European white oak barrels, then filtered to remove all colour.
Diamante (Rs 13,500) is full-bodied, smooth and complex, with notes of oak, vanilla and butterscotch and a touch of spice. Smooth, sweet, and spicy is how one could describe the drink.
Silver (Rs 10,750) is one of the most popular variants of the brand. Double-distilled for clarity, then bottled, its flavour is a mixture of essences ranging from sweet, caramel, honey and maple, to nutty, with notes of vanilla.
Reposado (Rs 11,950) is aged in the finest, charred new American oak barrels. It takes on the essence of oak with some light notes of fruit and hints of vanilla and almond. It is best savoured on the rocks or in your favorite cocktail.
Anejo (Rs 13,975) is a high-quality, rare spirit that is carefully distilled at La Rojeña Distillery. It is adored for its toffee and orange zest, and fresh herbal flavours.
