Adding to its portfolio of agave spirits, Blue Nectar Spirits Co. released the first batch of its Anejo Founder’s Blend tequila. Created by father-son co-founders BN Bahadur and Nikhil Bahadur, and master blender Guillermo Garcia-Lay, each batch of Añejo Founder’s Blend will vary slightly in structure, with a focus on balancing agave and oak notes, the company says. The 80 proof batch of Añejo Founder’s Blend has been aged for 2 years and blended with a limited-production 3.5-year-old and 5-year-old extra añejo, which results in a tequila that warms to velvety buttered toffee, vanilla, smoke and oak notes with a medium dry finish, it adds. Packaged in a 750-ml bottle, Blue Nectar Añejo Founder’s Tequila is available in select markets for a suggested retail price of $59.99.
