Adictivo Double Black 14 Year is an Extra Rare extra añejo tequila, made from 100% blue agave in Jalisco and rested for 14 years in oak, far beyond the three years the category requires. It is bottled at 40% ABV in a striking matte black decanter and is also known as the King's Edition, Edición de Reyes.
Fourteen years is an extraordinary age for tequila. As it rests, the agave spirit takes on the colour, richness and structure of the barrel, and Adictivo's long-aged releases are prized by collectors for the way they bridge tequila and fine aged spirits. Expect sweet oak and vanilla on the nose with hints of fruit and deep wood tones, a palate of dark fruit and warm oak spice, and a long, lingering finish.
The presentation is bold and luxurious. The angular black bottle, wrapped at the neck, carries the Adictivo agave emblem in gold with a 14 medallion, and it arrives in a black textured presentation box marked Extra Rare, Double Black.
With its extraordinary age and dramatic black presentation, the Double Black 14 Year is a bottle made to be shared on special occasions and displayed with pride.
