Three Years (or More) in Oak
Extra anejo is tequila's most patient expression: by law it rests more than three years in oak, absorbing vanilla, caramel, and spice until the barrel nearly equals the agave. Te Amo's extra anejo comes from NOM 1459 in Amatitan — a contract distillery with respected names like Santera and Mi Familia Flores on its roster — and arrives in the brand's signature full-liter bottle. The current listing carries no real description on the store, just a leftover Blanco snippet, which shortchanges a bottle of this depth: retailer notes describe an amber pour where vanilla, caramel, and oak dominate, smooth and refined, with agave and spice still present in the aroma.

Tasting Notes
Retailer tasting notes (no official brand notes found) describe an amber-hued pour: vanilla, caramel, and oak dominate the palate with a smooth, refined quality; the aroma carries agave and spice; the finish is soft, spicy, and woody. Expect the deep, almost cognac-like character that three-plus years in oak brings to well-made tequila.
How to Enjoy
Treat it like a fine cognac or aged rum: neat in a snifter, with time to open. This is not a mixing tequila — at 40% ABV and with years of oak behind it, it deserves contemplative sipping. A few drops of water lift the caramel and spice. Pair with dark chocolate, a cigar, or cocktails built for sipping whiskey, like an Old Fashioned variant.
