About this bottle
The bold character of Striped – Cerdo De Fuego Tequila roars from the highlands of Jalisco, where blue-webber agave basks in volcanic soils before being hand-harvested at peak maturity. Master distiller Enrique Santana slow-roasts the piñas in traditional brick ovens, coaxing out waves of caramelized agave sweetness that mingle with smoky mineral nuances. Double distillation in copper pot stills preserves a vibrant, clean spirit that sits between a classic blanco’s freshness and a joven’s faint golden glow, thanks to a brief rest in charred American oak.
On the nose, Cerdo De Fuego opens with bright bursts of roasted agave, grilled pineapple, cracked black pepper, and a trace of citrus zest. A swirl in your glass releases subtler aromas of vanilla bean, toasted coconut, and earthy cocoa. The first sip is silky yet fiery, sweet baked agave flows into honeyed pear, oregano, and a peppery tingle that earns the tequila its “Fuego” moniker. Oak whispers arrive mid-palate, adding gentle smoke, cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt before finishing dry, warm, and satisfyingly long.
Pour it neat to appreciate its artisanal roots, over a single cube for a slow-unfolding experience, or use it to elevate a spicy Paloma or a barrel-aged Margarita. Packaged in a distinctive 750 mL striped bottle depicting the fiery boar icon, this tequila makes a striking centerpiece or gift, especially when paired with Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant’s elegant wine gift box or personalized engraving. Add Cerdo De Fuego to your case of spirits and let the flames dance.

The Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant TeamTasting notes
Nose
Ripe cooked agave, black pepper, a wisp of wood smoke, and green chile. Underneath, a faint minerality like wet stone.
Palate
Full and oily, with sweet agave up front that turns roasted and peppery. A thread of smoke and chile heat runs through the middle. Clean, dry, and warming.
Finish
Long and spicy, with lingering black pepper and a soft smoky echo. The heat builds gently, then fades clean.
How to serve and what to pour it with
Sip neat at room temperature in a copita or small snifter to catch the smoke and pepper. A few drops of water open the agave. For cocktails, use it where the spirit leads, like a tequila old fashioned or a spicy margarita. Warm the glass with your hand first.
