Herradura Aniversario 150 Extra Añejo Tequila
Herradura Aniversario 150 Extra Añejo Tequila
Herradura's extra añejo comes from Amatitan, in the heart of Jalisco, where Blue Weber agave is cooked and then given more than eight years in American white oak. Very few tequilas are allowed that kind of time, and the color alone tells you what happened in the barrel.
Cooked agave still leads, sweet and vegetal, before caramel and dried fruit fold in behind it. Vanilla runs underneath the whole pour. The finish turns warmer and drier, with cinnamon and a deep oak that lingers well past the swallow. At 80 proof (40% ABV) the texture is soft rather than sharp, which lets the sweetness sit rather than burn off.
This is a sipping tequila, best in a snifter or a copita with nothing added. Bottled at 750 mL, and released in small quantity, so it turns up on the shelf only now and then.
