An Anniversary Worth Six Years
Michael and Celia Maestri moved from Houston to Tequila, Jalisco in 2008 with some 72 years of combined tequila experience between them — and went on to help create more than a hundred agave-spirit brands before building their own distillery. The Anniversary extra anejo is their victory lap: agave spirit laid into oak and aged through a solera system, the fractional-blending method more often seen in sherry and rum, which marries younger and older stocks into unusual depth. Six years in wood gives it a dark, contemplative character — closer to a fine cognac than to any mixto on the shelf.

Tasting Notes
Dark caramel, dried fig, and oak on the nose with baking spice. The palate is rich and layered — toffee, dark chocolate, and clove over sweet agave — finishing long and warming with polished oak.
How to Enjoy
Neat in a snifter, the way you'd pour a well-aged cognac. This is a special-occasion bottle — give it a quiet evening.
