Lunazul Extra Aged Anejo Tequila
Lunazul Extra Aged Anejo Tequila is a limited-release extra añejo from Tierra de Agaves (NOM 1079) in Tequila, Jalisco — a 100% blue Weber agave spirit rested 46 months in Elijah Craig Small Batch bourbon barrels, far beyond the extra-añejo minimum. Bottled at either 55% ABV (110 proof) or 40% ABV depending on the bottling — check your bottle's label — it's an unusually bold extra añejo in a category usually bottled at 80 proof.

Nearly Four Years in Bourbon Oak
Extra añejo legally requires just three years; Lunazul gave this one 46 months — and in barrels that previously held Elijah Craig Small Batch bourbon, which is where the signature flavor comes from: roasted agave wrapped in vanilla bean, toasted oak, caramelized sugar and dried fruit on the nose; bourbon-laced richness — cinnamon, baking spice, cooked agave — on the palate; and a long, warm finish of vanilla custard, oak char and black pepper. Released in limited quantities as part of Heaven Hill's Primero Collection, it's a mellow, sweet-barreled extra añejo that's easy to sip.

Tasting Notes
Nose: roasted agave, vanilla bean, toasted oak, caramelized sugar, dried fruit. Palate: cinnamon, oak, cooked agave, baking spice with bourbon-laced richness. Finish: long and warm — vanilla custard, oak char, a touch of pepper. (Community and retailer consensus; Agave Matchmaker flavor data.)
How to Enjoy
At either bottling strength, neat in a copita or rocks glass is the move — the bourbon-barrel character is the whole point. A few drops of water tame the 110-proof bottling if that's what's on your shelf.
