1800 Añejo Tequila is a premium tequila from the 1800 Tequila brand, which is one of the oldest and most well-respected tequila producers in Mexico. The Añejo expression is aged for at least 14 months in a combination of American oak and French oak barrels, giving it a rich, smooth flavor profile with layers of complexity. This aging process imparts deep wood, vanilla, and caramel notes while still preserving the vibrant agave flavours that make this tequila special. 1800 Añejo is a luxurious choice for those who enjoy sipping tequila neat or on the rocks, offering a refined drinking experience.

Flavour Profile of 1800 Añejo:

Agave-forward: The natural agave flavour is still present, but it’s softened and mellowed by the oak aging.
Vanilla and Caramel: Notes of vanilla, caramel, and butterscotch add a rich sweetness, making the tequila smooth and indulgent.
Spicy Oak: Subtle spices like cinnamon and nutmeg come through from the oak barrels, adding complexity and depth.
Fruit and Dried Fruit: There are hints of dried fruit, such as raisins or figs, which add layers of sweetness.
Smooth Finish: The finish is long and smooth, with a lingering warmth that’s balanced by the tequila’s sweetness and spice.
