One night five NBA owners Emilia Fazzalari and Wye Grousbeck of the Celtics, Jeanie Bus of the Lakers, Michael Jordan of the Hornets and Wes Edens of the Bucks met for dinner and conversed about their shared interest in and love of Tequila. From there Cincoro was born. Their vision was to create a rich and delicious Tequila that was ultra smooth with a long luxurious finish.
Cincoro uses Blue Weber Agave from the highland and lowland appellations of Jalisco, Mexico.
The stylish bottle is immediately recognizable and was designed to represent the sleek and contemporary Tequila. The bottle design evolved into a stylized agave leaf sculpture with five sides reflecting the five owners.
Tasting Notes
Intense amber in color with copper overtones, wood and dried fruits on the nose elegantly resonate throughout. Notes of orange, fig and date, with hints of caramel and butterscotch are distinguished on the palate. Unforgettable mouth feel and smooth luxurious finish lay the foundation for both classic cocktails or sipping neat.
Method
Cincoro aged expressions are characterized by their smoothness, richness, and deliciousness. Words rarely used to describe tequila. Cincoro Añejo begins as Cincoro Blanco, aging in used American whiskey barrels for 24-28 months. The aging and blending process is more robust for Añejo, as the master blender must distinguish more subtle notes from barrels over 3 years old, with a wide range of complexity from each barrel. The aging and blending process creates the rich and complex Cincoro taste profile, balancing the uniqueness of the agave profile, with time aging in specially selected barrels. Cincoro Añejo has layers of complexity, similar to fine bourbon or single malt scotch.
