Herencia Extra Anejo Tequila

The tequila unfolds its complexity with grace, revealing a palate adorned with notes of dark chocolate, intertwined with the sweetness of dried fruit. A touch of cinnamon adds a layer of warmth, creating a harmonious and sophisticated profile. The extended three-year aging process in oak barrels imparts a depth that transcends expectations, leading to a finish that is both enduring and comforting. Herencia Extra Añejo Tequila is not just a spirit; it is a celebration of time and craftsmanship. Each bottle represents the culmination of the distiller's art, capturing the essence of Mexico's rich tequila heritage. Whether savored neat to appreciate its full complexity or as the foundation for an elevated cocktail, every pour is an invitation to experience the pinnacle of extra añejo tequila excellence.

Made like it should be. PATRÓN Añejo is handcrafted from the finest 100% Weber Blue Agave and is carefully distilled in small batches at Hacienda Patrón distillery in Jalisco, Mexico.
Tequila añejo is aged 1 to 4 years in oak barrels (añejo means “old” or “vintage” in Spanish). It tastes richer, with notes of vanilla and cinnamon. Añejo shines when drunk straight and on the rocks, so you can taste the nuances of its character. Tequila aged over 3 years may be labeled Extra añejo.The time that the tequila spends aging in barrel is what determines whether it will be a blanco, which is unaged, a reposado, which is aged up to a year, or an añejo, which has been aged from 1-2years.
The distilling and aging process is the same, but while Añejo is left in an oak barrel between 12 and 35 months, Extra Añejo sits to age for a minimum of 36 months before being bottled, with some brands going up to 5 years of aging.But by definition, añejo is a blue agave gold tequila that has been aged for a minimum of 12 months in oak barrels, creating a gorgeous amber hue. The aging process creates a tequila that is bolder and richer than Reposado tequila or Blanco tequila.
Because of this, añejo and extra añejo tequilas are generally more expensive than the lesser aged reposado or blanco tequilas but this higher price is justified when you consider that only the best spirits are selected for ageing.
