History,
Añejo tequila produced in Amatitán, Jalisco (NOM 1477) Maestro Tequilero Alberto Partida
100% Azul aka Blue Weber (Agave tequilana)
Single estate agave (current batches are from the fields El Novillero and Las Rosas) Cooked in a traditional, mesquite-wood-fired stone oven (without steam)
Milled using an automated tahona (traditional stone wheel mill)
Fermented with fibers (bagasse) in open air wood tanks (tinas), using spring water & ambient yeast
Distilled in historical copper pot stills from the 19th century
Rested 12 months in ex-Napa Valley red wine American oak barrels
Aged for 12 months in ex-Napa Valley red wine casks of American oak, Amatiteña Añejo seems to gracefully straddle the line between terroir and barrel influence, between serious tequila and nightcap treat—all without a moment’s hesitation. Rich in profile yet lean enough that it never topples into decadence, this is an añejo that stirs memory.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Indulgent aromas of fresh glazed donuts, subtle tobacco leaf, candied dates, and petit dejeuner;
Palate: bold confectionary flavors of vanilla, caramel, dried cherry, candied plum, sweet potato, black walnut, and subtle marzipan
