Codigo 1530 Rosa has the same candied citrus qualities as the Codigo 1530 Blanco but is followed by lovely and soft floral notes. This is created not by adding rose petals but by aging the Blanco in uncharred Award-Winning Napa Cabernet French Oak barrels. In that short period of contact with the inside of the Cabernet staves, the Tequila profile edges are rounded, giving it a unique flavor.
Tasting Notes: Leads with bright agave character and finishes with the soft floral notes of Cabernet.
