Mayenda Introduces Reposado Double Cask: A New Era in Sipping Tequila

Mayenda Tequila, known for its innovative approach to tequila-making, has just launched its latest creation: Mayenda Tequila Reposado Double Cask. This new addition to the Mayenda lineup offers an elevated sipping experience, perfect for those looking to savor a refined tequila this summer.

Building on the success of Mayenda Blanco, the first tequila made with the brand's unique process of infusing roasted agave and agave miel (honey) before the final distillation, the Reposado Double Cask takes things a step further. This tequila undergoes a six-month aging process in a combination of American and European oak barrels, enhancing its complexity and depth.

Jesus Susunaga, Maestro Tequilero at Casa San Nicolás, explains the inspiration behind the new release: “With Mayenda Blanco, we knew we had unlocked new possibilities for expressing deeper flavors of the agave, thanks to the two extra steps in our signature process; yet it still felt like we had only scratched the surface of what was possible. When developing our Reposado, we decided to employ a double cask maturation and longer aging process. This resulted in an exceptionally smooth and balanced, aged tequila that maintains the soul of our beloved Blanco.”

Mayenda's signature process starts with 100% Blue Weber agave, grown in the highlands of Jalisco. The roasted agave and agave miel infusion before the final distillation step adds unique, naturally deepened notes of roasted agave and herbal complexity. This process sets Mayenda apart from other premium tequilas, creating a soulful, honeyed, and multi-dimensional flavor profile.

For the Reposado Double Cask, the tequila is aged in both American and European oak barrels. The American oak imparts rich, sweet notes of butterscotch, honeycomb, and vanilla, while the European oak adds a dry, spicy, and earthy profile with hints of cinnamon, chamomile, and red apple. This careful balance of flavors is achieved through a longer aging process of six months, compared to the typical two to three months for most Reposado tequilas.

Every drop of Mayenda Tequila is meticulously blended by Susunaga and his team at Casa San Nicolás to ensure the highest quality and consistency. Susunaga's extensive experience with aged spirits has enabled him to master this delicate craft, pioneering a new type of tequila in Mayenda.

Mayenda Reposado Double Cask can be enjoyed neat or in elevated cocktails like the Morita Martini or Elevated Paloma. Recipes and more information are available on the Mayenda website.

This elegant sipping tequila will be available in select retailers in the United States and Mexico starting June 2024, with a suggested retail price of $75 USD per 750 mL bottle or 1,445 Pesos in Mexico. As always, please sip responsibly.

Popeyes, the iconic Louisiana-born fried chicken brand, has officially launched its first airport outlet at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Terminal 2.

The Mumbai T2 store has been launched in partnership with AMRL, reflecting Popeyes’ focus on premium, high-footfall locations and its intent to bring globally loved flavours to travellers. Visitors at Terminal 2 can now enjoy signature offerings such as the Chicken Sandwich, Signature Fried Chicken, Boneless Chicken, and the Hot & Messy range, specially curated for the Indian palate. Staying true to its Louisiana Cajun roots, all chicken is fresh, hand-battered, hand-breaded, and marinated for 12 hours, ensuring bold and distinctive flavours in every bite.

Speaking on the expansion, Sameer Khetarpal, CEO & MD of Jubilant FoodWorks Limited, said, “Airports have become critical touchpoints for brand discovery and repeat engagement. Launching at Mumbai T2 allows us to reach a high-intent, high-frequency audience and take Popeyes beyond the high street. After a strong response in Mumbai since August, this opening is a deliberate move to scale the brand in premium travel-led locations.”

Highlighting the importance of F&B in the airport experience, a spokesperson from AMRL added, “The launch of Popeyes at CSMIA marks a significant milestone in AMRL’s F&B growth.
