Triple-Distilled Since 1946
Most tequila is distilled twice; El Destilador goes three times — a slower, more deliberate path to smoothness. Then the extra añejo rests in French oak, taking on the wood's fine character while the triple-distilled spirit stays clean underneath. The result is full-bodied, with legs in the glass and a clear nose of agave and fine wood. Discover more El Destilador and the tequila collection.
Tasting Notes
Per retailer reports: intense color with gold and silver highlights; a clear nose with agave and fine wood notes; a pleasant, full-bodied palate recalling wood and raw agave, with cooked agave, woody, and citrus notes.
How to Enjoy
Drink it straight — this is a sipping extra añejo, built for a snifter. It also mixes well with grapefruit soda if you want the agave to stretch.
