El Tesoro 80th Anniversary Extra Añejo Tequila

About El Tesoro 80th Anniversary Extra Añejo Tequila

El Tesoro tequila was founded in 1937 by tequilero Don Felipe Camarena. His grandson, Master Distiller Carlos Camarena is now at the helm. El Tosoro is crafted from handpicked, 8-year-old 100% estate-grown blue agave sourced from La Alteña, an area with a highlands climate and mineral-rich soil.

The piñas are slow-roasted for three days in an old-fashioned, hornos oven, before being crushed by a two-ton volcanic rock tahona. For this El Tesoro 80th Anniversary Limited Edition, the agave juice was extracted and distilled to 85 proof at a low temperature, with no sugar or water added, in bespoke copper stills crafted to Don Felipe’s specifications.

This beautiful añejo is aged eight years in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. It is one of the El Tesoro's most exquisitely aged Tequilas. Expect vibrant agave aromas, rich peppery flavors, and decadent buttery notes of caramel, cinnamon, and chocolate.
