Fuenteseca Reserva 5 Year Old Extra Anejo Tequila 2015
Fuenteseca Reserva 5 Year Old Extra Anejo Tequila 2015 is a 41.3% ABV (82.6 proof), 750mL single-vintage extra añejo from master distiller Enrique Fonseca — five full years resting in French oak barrels. Fonseca, who spent decades as an agave producer and harvester before distilling, ages the Cosecha 2015 far past the three-year extra añejo minimum at his family's La Tequileña distillery (NOM 1146) in Tequila, Jalisco. This is "the world's slowest tequila," and it drinks like it. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

The World's Slowest Tequila
Enrique Fonseca is an agave man first and a distiller second — he knows the plant from the harvest side, having waited the years blue agave needs to mature before he ever made his own tequila. The Fuenteseca Reserva line pushes aging further than any tequila on earth, from five years up to twenty-one, and the 2015 Cosecha sits at the sweet spot: five years in French oak, long enough for dried cherries, warm caramel, and toasted oak tannins to fully develop, but young enough that cooked agave still leads.

Tasting Notes
Nose: dried cherries, warm caramel, cooked agave, gentle barrel spice. Palate: agave sweetness balanced by toasty oak tannins, drying cinnamon spice, richly stewed fruit. Finish: long and warming, ripe fruitiness lingering well past the last sip.
How to Enjoy
Neat, or over a single large ice cube. Built for contemplative sipping — it also brings remarkable depth to a Tequila Old Fashioned or Tequila Manhattan.
