Espolon Double Cask Extra Anejo Tequila
40% ABV (80 proof) | 750mL | 2.5 years in American oak + 6 months in French Chardonnay casks | Los Altos, Jalisco, Mexico | Launched June 2026 — Espolón Double Cask Extra Añejo is the brand's boldest aged expression to date: extra añejo matured two and a half years in American oak, then finished six months in French Chardonnay casks for a rich, wine-kissed layer. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
Espolón (Campari Group) launched Double Cask nationwide in June 2026 as a Father's Day showpiece, and the matte-black bottle with neon-green lettering and Posada-inspired "The Serenata" artwork is impossible to miss. Maestro tequilero Jesús Susunaga Acosta built this from 100% Blue Weber agave in the Los Altos highlands — the Chardonnay finish makes it a standout among extra añejo tequilas for bourbon and wine-barrel whiskey drinkers.
Tasting notes
Official brand notes: caramel, vanilla, toasted oak and sweet spice, with a rich, approachable finish. The Chardonnay cask finish adds a rounded, wine-barrel softness over the classic extra añejo depth.
