DeLeón’s Reposado Father’s Day Old Fashioned a classic drink

Michael Hepworth

HOLLYWOOD(Spiritsman)6/1/15/–This make your dad and put a spin on the Old Fashioned classic cocktail with DeLeón Tequila. Featuring the rick, oaky flavor of DeLeón’s Reposado, the DeLeón Old Fashioned takes the standards of the Old Fashioned category to the next level. In this cocktail, the warm cinnamon notes and vanilla finish of the oak-aged Reposado are enhanced with smoke from the addition of mescal, sweetness from tequila’s native agave, and space from Angostura bitters for a Mexican twist on this traditional cocktail.

A bottle of DeLeón Tequila will show Dad exactly how much he means to you as you help take him to a new standard of luxury with this rich and complex spirit. Un-aged and unrivaled in finish, the DeLeón Tequila line-up starts at $60 per 750ml and is made from 100% Highland agave and rich, complex agave honey that is slow-fermented and twice-distilled.
