Tequila Partida and Southern Spirits Launch Limited Edition Roble Fino Añejo
Tequila Partida's Exclusive Roble Fino Single Barrel Añejo
In an exciting announcement, Tequila Partida in collaboration with Southern Spirits has unveiled an exclusive tequila that aficionados won't want to miss: the Partida Roble Fino Single Barrel Añejo. This limited release features just 138 bottles, making it a truly one-of-a-kind offering aimed at discerning palates.
The Roble Fino Añejo is crafted under the expert guidance of Maestro Tequilero José Valdez Reynoso, whose decades of experience have culminated in this unique expression. The tequila begins its journey in an American oak barrel that previously held Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey for three years, a process that imparts a distinctive character to the spirit. After a staggering 26 months of maturation, it is then transferred to a Sherry Single Malt cask that adds further layers of complexity, having previously aged Oloroso Sherry for three years and Single Malt Scotch Whisky for an impressive 24 years.
Bottled at a robust 54.5% ABV (or 109 proof), the Roble Fino Añejo Single Barrel is designed to deliver both intensity and elegance. According to Reynoso, the combination of aging techniques preserves the clean agave notes while enriching the tequila with a remarkable depth that reflects the unique maturation processes. “This exclusive and limited edition is the result of over two decades of refining our craft,” he commented, highlighting the exceptional attention given to barrel selection and aging.
The launch event is set for October 2, 2026, from 5 PM to 8 PM EST at Southern Spirits, located in Indian Land, South Carolina. Consumers interested in acquiring this limited-edition spirit will have the opportunity to meet Maestro Reynoso himself at the event, where he will relay insights behind the creation of the tequila. The retail price is set at $199.99; however, it's important to note that this offering is available only to residents of South Carolina. Those outside the state will need to travel to purchase directly from the store.
Southern Spirits has expressed excitement about this collaboration, stating, “Understanding that Partida's Roble Fino range encompasses some of the finest aged tequilas, we encouraged José to innovate further by creating the first-ever cask strength single barrel within this collection.” The anticipation is palpable, and the Southern Spirits team is eager to witness consumer reactions to this groundbreaking release.
Once these 138 bottles have been sold, this cask-strength expression will no longer be available, rendering it a must-have for tequila collectors and enthusiasts alike.
