El Tesoro Releases Basil Hayden Toast Tequila

The reposado Tequila spends six months in charred Basil Hayden Bourbon barrels.

Suntory Global Spirits has announced the latest release in El Tesoro Tequila’s Mundial Collection, a new reposado Tequila aged in Basil Hayden Toast barrels. The limited edition whiskey barrel-aged Tequila ($175 a 750-ml.) spends roughly six months in Basil Hayden barrels that were toasted and flash charred before bottling at 40% abv. El Tesoro Mundial Collection: Basil Hayden Toast edition is the third release in the series and follows 2021’s Laphroaig cask aged Tequila and 2023’s iteration, which matured in Knob Creek rye barrels. The new release is available in limited quantities. For more information, visit Eltesorotequila.com.
