Código 1530 is a premium spirits brand, known for five generations as El Tequila Privado (the private Tequila) by only a select group of Mexico’s most respected families and finest jimadors. Now available to the world, Código 1530’s tequila offerings have been perfected using time-honored practices without ever veering from the centuries-old Tequila-making customs, or “Los Codigos,” the sacred craft rules that have become the brand’s namesake. Produced in a distillery in Amatitán, Jalisco, the rested tequilas are meticulously aged to taste in the finest French Oak Cabernet wine barrels procured from the Napa Valley region. Código is made with three times the agave as the average Tequila, which provides it with a subtle sweetness without using any artificial additives or sweeteners. As opposed to commercial yeast, the brand sources its yeast from a small local Amatitán bakery that the original family had been going to for generations. Aged for 18 months in the finest Napa Valley Cabernet French White Oak wine barrels. Refined, elegant and expressive – hints of fruit, mingled with oak, touches of vanilla and a bit of spice.
