Forty-Two Months, Two Kinds of Oak
Extra añejo starts at three years — Romantico goes to 42 months, splitting the time between American and French oak for a profile that layers toffee, almond and raisin over dry agave, with coffee, cacao and chocolate riding a long vanilla-and-oak finish. It earned an 85 "Great" Raided Score from The Daily Pour. See more extra añejo tequilas at Del Mesa Liquor, or browse the Romantico line.
