Puntagave Anejo Tequila
Puntagave Anejo Tequila is an 82-proof (41% ABV) anejo made from 100% Blue Weber highlands agave and rested 18 months in bourbon barrels at NOM 1479 — Hacienda La Capilla in Capilla de Guadalupe, Jalisco, under Maestro Tequilero Guillermo Barroso Arnaud. Eighteen months in oak puts this at the deep end of the anejo category: the highlands agave's natural sweetness meets bourbon-barrel vanilla and caramel, double-distilled in copper pot stills for a clean, refined spirit.

Eighteen Months in Bourbon Oak
Most anejos rest a year; Puntagave gives theirs a year and a half in bourbon barrels, and it shows. The highlands agave — sweeter and fruitier than lowlands agave — soaks up vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak from the barrels, while double distillation in copper pot stills keeps the spirit clean and precise underneath. It's made at Hacienda La Capilla, one of the respected Los Altos distilleries, in the traditional way: autoclave-cooked agave, roller-mill extraction, copper pot distillation.
