Description

Terebelo Jaguar New York Bourbon — Tequila Barrel Finish

Profile:
Terebelo Jaguar is an innovative expression from the boutique Terebelo distillery, crafted from 100% New York corn and finished in ex-tequila barrels to add a distinctive agave-influenced character to the classic bourbon profile. This limited-release bottle bridges the warmth and spice of New-York-made bourbon with the vibrant, earthy essence imparted by tequila-seasoned wood.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Opens with sweet caramel and vanilla, underscored by subtle agave brightness and hints of citrus zest — a gentle nod to its tequila barrel heritage.

• Palate: Smooth and approachable on the palate, with classic bourbon core notes of toffee, oak, and baking spice, lifted by earthy agave tones and a touch of peppery warmth from the tequila wood finish.

• Finish: Medium-long with lingering oak spice and faint vegetal sweetness, leaving a balanced and multi-layered aftertaste that highlights both the bourbon base and tequila barrel influence.

ABV: Typically bottled at ~42% (varies by batch) — a smooth sipping strength that lets the nuanced barrel influence shine without overpowering heat.

Craft Story:
Created by Terebelo’s distilling team in New York, this expression showcases the versatility of bourbon when finished in barrels that once held tequila. By resting the whiskey in tequila-seasoned wood, the spirit absorbs subtle notes of agave, citrus, and earthiness — elevating the drinker’s experience beyond traditional bourbon into a balanced, innovative finish you won’t find in ordinary releases.
