"The Symphony Series represents a unique take on tequila that's primarily about the barrel, which also helps explain the name of the trilogy. Symphony barrels are custom casks that utilize oak staves sourced from different areas that are pieced together to form a maturation barrel."
"Symphony Series No. 3 is an 18-month-old añejo, bottled at 45% ABV and aged in those custom symphony casks. The proprietary process for these barrels involves toasting the staves over a low-burning 'chaufferette' while they're continually sprayed with water."
"Minnesota brings all of the citrusy notes, Missouri brings out all of these spices, like cloves and cinnamon, and Virginia brings in all of this body and minerality to your tequila."
