Process & Aging
Produced at the historic Hacienda Corralejo in Guanajuato, Mexico, this extra añejo begins with carefully selected 100% handpicked Blue Weber agave. The tequila is double distilled using the traditional Charentais method, a technique inspired by Cognac production that helps preserve aromatic richness and flavor complexity.
Following distillation, the tequila is matured for 36 months (3 years) in a carefully selected combination of American and French oak barrels, allowing it to develop exceptional smoothness and layered oak influence while maintaining its agave foundation.

What Makes It Special
Corralejo 3 Year Extra Añejo stands apart through its extended 36-month aging period, significantly longer than many traditional añejo tequilas. The combination of French and American oak maturation creates a sophisticated profile that appeals to both tequila enthusiasts and whiskey or Cognac drinkers.
Its production at the historic Hacienda Corralejo in Guanajuato further distinguishes it from many tequila brands, as Corralejo remains one of the few major tequila producers located outside Jalisco while still operating within Mexico's protected tequila denomination of origin.
How to Enjoy
Best enjoyed neat in a snifter or tasting glass to fully appreciate its mature oak character and layered complexity. It also pairs exceptionally well with dark chocolate, fine cigars, and special occasions.
