Deeply Rooted Tradition and Artful Aging
Introducing Corralejo Añejo, a superb expression of finely aged tequila from the renowned Hacienda Corralejo. Distilled from 100% handpicked Blue Weber agave, each batch is carefully nurtured to encapsulate the essence of its prestigious origin in Guanajuato. Following a meticulous double distillation process, using the time-honored Charentais method originally developed for Cognac, this tequila is aged for a full year in a carefully selected mix of small oak barrels.
Refined Cask Harmony
The aging process utilizes a mix of American, French Limousine, and Mexican oak barrels, each no larger than 300 liters, to ensure a rich exchange between the tequila and the wood. This method enriches the tequila with a complex array of flavors and a smooth, mature character that is both luxurious and distinctly bold.
