A Historic Distillery's Patient Añejo
El Destilador — "The Distiller's Tequila" — comes from one of the most respected old houses in the Tequila valley: Corporativo Destileria Santa Lucia, established in 1946 by Enrique Guillermo Newton Alexanderson and still operating under NOM 1173. Its añejo rests over a full year in white oak, trading the bright edge of the blanco for wood-driven depth while keeping the cooked-agave core that defines traditional tequila making.
Tasting Notes
Warm wood and raw agave lead, with a rounded, mature profile from the extended oak rest. Triple distillation keeps the palate smooth and refined, and the finish carries lingering oak and agave character that will satisfy demanding añejo tequila drinkers neat or on a single cube.
How to Enjoy
Serve neat in a copita or over one large ice cube to let the oak notes open up. It pairs well with dark chocolate, roasted nuts, or a cigar-friendly evening pour, and it brings extra polish to an aged-tequila old fashioned.
