It’s almost October, a month that ends with a night of ghouls, ghosts, and other creepy creatures. It doesn’t necessarily feel like a month for sipping and mixing with tequila. Whiskey seems to get all the love when the weather turns cooler. But the folks at Jose Cuervo think that’s a shame. That’s why they recently released a new, unique tequila expression that’s perfect for chilly fall weather called Jose Cuervo Devil’s Reserve.

It gets its name because it’s a blend of Jose Cuervo Silver and a hit of lingering sweet heat. Instead of 80-proof, it’s bottled at a less potent 60-proof. It’s sure to add some agave, vegetal sweetness, and heat to your favorite tequila-based cocktails this October (and well into the winter months).

“Devil’s Reserve unleashes an entirely new taste upon the world of tequila, bringing the Devil’s mischievous spirit to life for those craving unforgettable nights of adventure with the perfect drink in hand,” Lander Otegui, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Proximo Spirits said in a press release. “Cuervo has an epic legacy in creating centuries of good times across 10 generations, and no one knows how to raise a little hell as much as we do. The Devil is in the details.”

Aquavit: the centuries-old spirit that’s more than just “black death”
What exaclty is aquavit?
Alcohol tasting: Aquavit, Bitter orange snaps, Bask, Arrack punsch

If you’ve ever been to Iceland, there’s a chance a local tour guide has offered you a chance to partake in a less-than-appealing local rite of passage. I’m talking about eating fermented shark followed by a shot of Brennivin. I, like many travelers to Iceland, have taken part in this life-changing experience. I can tell you that the shark is the biggest acquired taste I’ve ever been a part of.

The Brennivin, on the other hand, was actually memorable in a good way. Even though it’s referred to as “black death,” this strong Icelandic spirit is a neutral spirit made from potatoes. It gets its unique flavor from the use of caraway seeds. It’s the country’s main type of Aquavit and it's the national drink. But it’s definitely not the only country that makes this unique spirit. You might be wondering what Aquavit is.
