Cascahuin Private Barrel Anejo Hi Proof Store Pick 86 Proof Aged 17 Month 750ml Limit 1
CascahuĆn AƱejo Single Barrel ā HI PROOF Store Pick
Aged 17 Months in Ex-Uruapan Charanda American Oak Barrels
A Mexican Spirits Crossover, Reversed.
Charanda ā the sugarcane-based distillate from MichoacĆ”n often referred to as Mexico's artisanal rum ā has long shared a special kinship with the world of tequila. Over the years, several renowned tequila producers have collaborated with Uruapan Charanda, the historic Pacheco family distillery, to create unique cask-finished expressions. One of the most beloved examples was the Uruapan Ex-CascahuĆn Cask release, which earned a devoted following among agave and rum enthusiasts alike.
Now, the collaboration comes full circle ā but in reverse.
CascahuĆn has released a remarkable single barrel expression aged for 17 months in American oak barrels previously used to mature Uruapan Charanda. Only four barrels of this expression were ever produced, and HI PROOF was honored to barrel pick one of them ā making this release exceptionally limited and exclusive to our shelves.
The Tasting
When we sat down to evaluate this barrel, we immediately reached for CascahuĆn Extra AƱejo as our reference point ā the profile felt remarkably close. We tasted them side by side to better understand what this single barrel brings to the table.
The Extra AƱejo, being a blend, naturally carries more depth of sweetness and layered complexity. But this AƱejo holds its own in a way we didn't expect. Where it truly distinguishes itself is on the finish ā that's where the Charanda influence reveals itself, weaving subtle sugarcane character and a gentle tropical sweetness through the back palate. The result is a tequila that drinks with extraordinary ease.
At 86 proof (43% ABV), it sips far smoother than the number suggests. There's a roundness and approachability here that makes each pour effortless.
How We Recommend Drinking It
This is the bottle you reach for when good friends gather. It's a tequila built for conversation, for laughter, for those unhurried evenings where the company matters as much as what's in the glass. Even guests who aren't seasoned tequila drinkers will find this one immediately welcoming and easy to love.
