Volans 7 Year Old Extra Anejo Tequila
Volans 7 Year Old Extra Añejo Tequila is patience in a bottle: 100% Blue Weber agave aged seven full years — six in used American white oak bourbon barrels, one more in French oak, then rested six months in stainless steel — bottled at 84.6 proof (42.3% ABV) in this 750mL bottle with zero additives, and it is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
Volans is distilled at El Pandillo (NOM 1579) in the Southern Los Altos of the Jalisco Highlands by Master Distiller Felipe J. Camarena — from estate-grown, fully mature Blue Weber agave, slow-steamed 22 hours in stone and brick ovens, crushed by mechanical tahona, fermented open-air in stainless steel, and double-distilled in copper pot stills. The seven-year aging (filled into barrel at 48% ABV) is unusually long for extra añejo, and the brand commits to zero additives — no caramel coloring, vanilla, oak extract, glycerin, or sugar syrups.
Tasting notes: nose of warm oak, dried fruit, vanilla, and a whisper of caramel; palate of roasted agave, dark chocolate, baking spice, and subtle stone fruit — silky and full-bodied; long refined finish of toasted oak, gentle sweetness, and a clean elegant fade.
