Elevate your tequila experience with Chamucos Tequila Extra Añejo, a true masterpiece of the distiller's craft. Meticulously crafted and aged to perfection, this exceptional spirit embodies the pinnacle of Mexican tequila-making tradition.

Beginning with the finest hand-selected blue agave plants from the sun-drenched fields of Jalisco, Mexico, Chamucos Tequila Extra Añejo undergoes a meticulous production process. The piñas, or hearts of the agave, are slow-roasted in traditional stone ovens to unlock their natural sugars, imparting a depth of flavor and complexity.

Following fermentation, the agave juice is distilled in small batches using copper pot stills, allowing for precise control over the distillation process and ensuring the highest quality spirit. The tequila is then aged in carefully selected oak barrels for a minimum of three years, allowing it to develop its rich character and smoothness.

The extended aging process imparts Chamucos Tequila Extra Añejo with a deep mahogany color and a complex aroma. Notes of caramel, vanilla, and spice mingle with hints of dried fruit and oak, creating an enticing olfactory experience.

On the palate, Chamucos Tequila Extra Añejo delights with its velvety texture and full-bodied flavor profile. Flavors of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and toasted oak dance across the tongue, balanced by a subtle sweetness and a touch of spice.

Perfect for savoring on special occasions or as a luxurious indulgence, Chamucos Tequila Extra Añejo is a testament to the artistry and dedication of Mexican tequila-makers. With its exceptional craftsmanship and unparalleled depth of flavor, this extraordinary spirit is sure to impress even the most discerning connoisseurs.

Distillery Information

Chamucos, which loosely translates as 'boogie man, is a 100% agave reposado tequila produced by Premium de Jalisco in Mazamitla in southern Jalisco.
Chamucos Tequila was originally conceived in 1992 by two friends; the Oscar nominated Mexican film director, Antonio Urrutia, and his close friend, a hand-blown glass bottle artist/ producer, Cesar Hernandez. Chamucos Tequila was originally produced and bottled as Reposado only.
CasamigosActor George Clooney, entrepreneur Rande Gerber (husband to model Cindy Crawford), and entrepreneur Michael Meldman created three tequilas that are made from agave grown in Jalisco's Highlands.In the local Nahuatl language, the word tequila means 'volcanic rock' or 'rock that cuts', a reference to the dormant volcano that shadows the town of Tequila. In the 17th century 'agave wines' produced in and around the town of Tequila started to gain notoriety for their quality.
The agave juices are then distilled, which purifies the liquid and concentrates the alcohol in the mixture. Tequila is typically distilled twice. The first distillation produces a cloudy liquid called the ordinario. The second distillation produces the clear silver tequila, which is then ready to be aged and bottled.The Cuervo (now Beckmann) family doesn't just sell the most tequila in the world, they've also been doing it for the longest. In 1795 José María Guadalupe de Cuervo was granted a permit by King Carlos IV of Spain allowing him to commercially produce what was then known as mezcal wine.
