Herradura 150th Anniversary Extra Añejo Tequila

The ultimate expression of the passion, Tequila Herradura Aniversario commemorates 150 years of excellence. Crafted to embody the essence of sophistication, it’s aged for 100 months to create an exceptionally mature and complex tequila worthy of celebration.

Made from time honored traditional methods, it is aged for 100 months in American White Oak barrels creating the ultimate Extra Añejo expression representing 150 years of tequila making excellence.

Herradura uses the traditional process of harvesting the 100% Blue Weber Agave from the volcanic lowland region around Amatitian. The agave is then stacked in clay ovens and steamed for at least 26 hours. Once the pinas are cooked, they are crushed to extract the sugary juice, or "mosto", which is then moved into tanks for the natural fermentation process. The final step was the barrelling, which took place in November of 2012.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Cooked agave with a solid flavor of apple, caramel, and pitted fruit.

Palate: A blend of citrus, roasted coffee, sweet pear, roasted almond, orange, rosemary, clove, agave syrup, sweet coconut, chocolate, and anise.

Finish: A very complex flavor and lingering.
