Description
Espolón Añejo Bourbon Barrel Aged Tequila
100% blue weber agave. Aged 10 months in new American oak barrels and finished for 2 months in wild turkey bourbon barrels.
The tequila Añejo starts as Blanco and finishes as something entirely unique. First aged in new American oak for 10 months, it’s then placed into deeply charred bourbon whiskey barrels and aged two months longer to create a tequila rich in character with a taste all its own. This one deserves to be sipped, alone or with an ice cube.
TASTING NOTES

- NOSE: Complex balance of roasted agave and wood, with hints of dried fruits and butterscotch.
- TASTE: Medium to full bodied. Wonderfully balanced with velvety mouthfeel. Subtle notes of caramel, vanilla, dried fruits and even chocolate, aimed at discerning palates.
