Why Gifted Pour recommends it
Eighteen months is the minimum this añejo spends resting, and it rests in four kinds of wood: American white oak, French oak, French acacia and cherry barrels. That layered maturation, overseen by Maestra Tequilera Ana Maria Romero, shows in the glass as deep gold with copper tones. The nose opens on cacao nib, butterscotch, cooked agave and a hint of tobacco. The palate is smooth and velvety, moving through dried fruit, spice and coffee. It makes a thoughtful gift for someone who already sips whiskey or cognac slowly and is curious where aged tequila can go. It also suits milestone moments like a promotion, a retirement, a fortieth birthday or the close of a long project. Made from 100% blue weber agave and hailing from the Jalisco Highlands, it is meant to be poured neat at room temperature in a snifter or tulip glass, perhaps with a few drops of water, and shared after dinner alongside dark chocolate or an espresso.
Pairs well with
- Dark chocolate desserts — The cacao nib and coffee notes echo rich chocolate and espresso treats, so each brings out the other.
- Grilled steak or lamb — The tequila's spice and tobacco notes complement smoky, savory grilled meats.
- Promotion or retirement toast — Its layered butterscotch, dried fruit and oak make it a bottle for slow, celebratory sipping when a milestone deserves a proper pour.
