Kinky's tequila line is made from the Weber Blue Agave of Mexico's Jalisco Highlands and is filtered only once using the traditional small batch method distillation process. There are currently four varieties of Kinky's magical elixir available: crystal clear Plata is oven roasted and distilled in copper the old-fashioned way, slightly caramel Reposado rests for eight months in charred American white oak barrels, deep caramel Anejo sits for 14 months in smoked French oak barrels, and the ultra-premium Extra Anejo is aged for 6 years in those same charred French oak casks.
