Rich, elegant, and exceptionally refined, Espolòn Extra Añejo Tequila represents one of the most mature expressions ever released by the iconic Jalisco distillery. Crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave and aged far beyond the minimum requirements for the category, this ultra-premium tequila showcases the balance between long oak maturation and Espolòn's signature agave-forward character. Bottled at 40% ABV in a 750ml format, it delivers remarkable complexity, depth, and sophistication.

Process & Profile

Created under the vision of Master Distiller Cirilo Oropeza, Espolòn Extra Añejo begins with 100% Blue Weber agave harvested in Jalisco, Mexico. This expression undergoes an extended aging program, including maturation in bourbon barrels followed by a finishing period in French Chardonnay wine barrels. The dual-cask aging approach contributes layers of oak influence while preserving the tequila's underlying agave character.

Aged for approximately three years, this Extra Añejo develops exceptional richness while maintaining balance and elegance. The combination of bourbon and Chardonnay casks adds depth, fruit character, and refined spice notes uncommon in traditional aged tequilas.

Appearance

Tasting Notes

What Makes It Special

Espolòn Extra Añejo stands apart through its innovative double-cask aging regimen. The spirit spends the majority of its maturation in bourbon barrels before receiving a finishing period in French Chardonnay barrels, creating a distinctive profile that combines traditional tequila richness with nuanced wine-cask complexity.

The result is an Extra Añejo that appeals to both tequila enthusiasts and whiskey drinkers, offering substantial oak-derived depth while retaining the essence of Blue Weber agave.

How to Enjoy

Best enjoyed neat in a sipping glass to appreciate its layered aromas and evolving palate. A few drops of water can further open the spirit's fruit and spice notes. It also makes an exceptional alternative to fine whiskey or cognac after dinner.
