Review: Gran Centenario Rosangel Hibiscus Tequila

We’ve gone through flavored vodka and flavored rum. Now you can start adding flavored tequilas — hitting the market in earnest now — to the mix.

Unlike, say, Agave Loco, Centenario’s Rosangel is a much more subtle product. The only similarity is the original base spirit: Reposado tequila, rested for two months (in Port barrels in the case of Rosangel). Centenario then infuses the tequila with hibiscus flowers (not roses, mind you),and once it’s taken on a pink hue, it’s bottled and sold for you to sample.

The experience is quite unique. Though quite flowery on the nose, the initial taste is vanilla-packed tequila with a decent amount of agave flavor in it. The finish brings on, however, not tequila’s frequent astringency but a hefty flower power that lingers a bit, quite pleasantly. It actually does taste more rose-like than hibiscus  . . .
