Cava De Oro Extra Anejo Tequila
Cava De Oro Extra Anejo Tequila
Description
Cava de Oro Extra Añejo is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila aged five years in ex-red wine French oak barrels — double-distilled in traditional pot stills at the Puerta de Hierro Distillery (NOM 1477), with a deep amber hue and a complex profile of caramel, vanilla, oak, dried fruit, and spice. Best in Show, 2012 Spirits of Mexico.
Sourced from blue Weber agave harvested at peak in the Los Altos and Tequila Valley regions of Jalisco and crafted under Master Distiller Gildardo Partida Melendrez, this extra añejo's unusual five-year maturation in ex-red wine French oak (rather than ex-bourbon American oak) gives it a distinctive, layered complexity. Best enjoyed neat or on the rocks.
