About this Event
Libélula Tequila and Cointreau Tasting: Margarita Night, Done Right
This one is built around a classic for a reason. Great tequila, proper orange liqueur, fresh lime, and suddenly the Margarita makes a whole lot of sense.
We’re pouring three expressions from Libélula Tequila alongside Cointreau, giving you a chance to taste the tequila on its own and then see what happens when these two bottles meet in one of the world’s great cocktails.
What We’re Tasting
Bright, agave-forward, and easy to drink, combining fresh citrus and grassy character with a touch of vanilla and spice from aged tequila in the blend.
Rested for eight months in American oak bourbon barrels, bringing together agave, vanilla, cocoa, clove, and ripe red fruit in a soft, approachable style.
Fourteen months in ex-bourbon barrels adds another level of richness, with caramel, vanilla, and warm baking spice layered over the agave.
The orange liqueur behind the Original Margarita, made with sweet and bitter orange peels for a bright, aromatic citrus profile that brings freshness and balance to the cocktail.
