    Distilled from 100% blue Weber agave, it is aged for at least a year in barrels not to exceed 600 liters. Any type of wood is acceptable, but ex-bourbon barrels are most common. Añejo tequilas are also known as "aged" or "extra aged".

    American white oak, French oak, French acacia barrels, cherry oak casks

Tasting Notes

"The nose shows a myriad of aromas including roasted coffee beans, hazelnuts, cinnamon, milk chocolate frosting, butterscotch and a very light cherry wood scent. The agave aromas come through a bit stronger on the palate than the nose showing a leafy green back note along with dried tobacco leaves. The sweet level is moderate. Often añejo tequilas can become quite dominating with vanilla and oak. Here, the wood varieties each have a chance to shine while not letting you forget you're drinking tequila. Lots going on here so take your time sipping this one."
