The Código 1530 George Strait is a double barrel-aged tequila that promises an elevated cocktail experience. The limited-edition release is the "first-ever double barrel-aged Rosa-Reposado tequila" and as country fans may derive from the name, the bottle is inspired by American country icon George Strait.
Código 1530 has been celebrated as "the first brand to produce a naturally pink-hued tequila." The brand's process is unique—it rests its pure Blanco expression in French white oak Cabernet wine barrels. However, unlike the original version, Código 1530's double barrel-aged tequila first rests in the French barrels and then is transported to Spanish Sherry wine barrels which add "extra character and a soft, sweet finish."
On its website, Código 1530 shares a slew of tasty cocktail recipes and inspiration that make use of its unique offerings.
