EL Tesoro Extra Anejo (750Ml)

El Tesoro, founded by the Coronado family, has been distilling tequila for three generations. With time and experience, they have honed their process using precise measurements, double distillation to ensure proof, and attention to detail. Each batch is handled with care, with each bottle being labeled by hand. El Tesoro crafts their tequila with hand selected agave roasted in traditional hornos. The agave piñas are stripped using a non-volcanic tahona pit. Once shredded and crushed, the agave juice and pulp are transferred to open wooden vats and fermented with natural yeast.

The resulting liquid is then transferred to and distilled in small copper pot stills. This Extra Añejo from El Tosoro was created to honor Felipe J., the father of master distiller Carlos Camarena, and their shared passion and love for aging fine tequila. This special tequila blend is aged in American oak ex-bourbon barrels from four to five years. With a vibrant gold appearance, the aromas lead with notes of coffee, cinnamon, caramel and butter, imbued from the oak and cooked agave. The palate is rich with notes of dark chocolate, coffee, dry fruits and roasted nuttiness. The finish offers hints of pepper and oak. The best way to savor this Extra Añejo is neat in a snifter or flute.
