Description
El Tesoro Añejo Tequila – 80 Proof (40% ABV) | 750ml
Rich, elegant, and deeply agave-forward, El Tesoro Añejo Tequila showcases the refined side of traditional tequila aging. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) in a 750ml bottle, this añejo balances mature oak character with the natural sweetness of cooked agave, delivering a smooth and sophisticated sipping experience.
Process & Aging
El Tesoro Añejo is crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. The agave is slow-cooked in traditional stone ovens, naturally fermented, and double-distilled in copper pot stills at the historic La Alteña Distillery. The tequila is then aged in American oak barrels for an extended period, allowing deeper notes of oak, vanilla, and spice to develop while preserving El Tesoro’s signature agave character.
Tasting Notes
The nose reveals aromas of cooked agave, caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, and subtle baking spice. On the palate, rich agave sweetness is layered with flavors of honey, toffee, cinnamon, and gentle oak, creating a smooth and velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long and warming, with lingering agave, soft spice, and refined oak notes.
What Makes It Special
El Tesoro Añejo stands out for its traditional production methods, additive-free profile, and thoughtful aging that enhances complexity without overpowering the agave. It offers a classic añejo experience that appeals equally to tequila purists and whiskey drinkers exploring aged tequila.
How to Enjoy
Best enjoyed neat or over a large ice cube to fully appreciate its layered flavors and silky texture. It also performs beautifully in elevated cocktails such as a Tequila Old Fashioned or Añejo Manhattan-style serve, where its depth and balance shine.

El Tesoro Anejo Tequila
Strong, smooth, clean, clear effect. Slight taste of agave. I'm not a sipper. I toss a shot on an empty stomach, 30 seconds, straight to afterburners. No hangover. Fast up, eat something, easy down. The only tequila I use. Others have a chemical taste, feel like pollution.

great bottle of tequia
costly to have it ship from southern cal to north cal

A bargain at its price point
Smooth and warm. It isn't the best tequila we've experienced but it's far better than the popular, mass produced tequilas you see everywhere. Definitely worth keeping on hand.
