The Story
Hacienda Sahuayo distills at NOM 1511 in Sahuayo, Michoacán — one of the few tequila houses working outside Jalisco, in the Ciénega region near Lake Chapala. Its añejo rests 18 months in American oak, long enough for the barrels to lay down vanilla, caramel and dried-fruit depth over the cooked agave. It pours alongside the house reposado and the crystal-clear Añejo Cristalino at Del Mesa, and it is one of the most affordable true añejos in our añejo tequila collection.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Cooked agave, vanilla, caramel and warm oak. Palate: Smooth and rounded — caramelized agave, vanilla bean, dried fruit and gentle baking spice. Finish: Warm and medium-long, with sweet oak and agave.
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat or over a large cube; the 18-month rest makes it a natural after-dinner pour. It also upgrades an Añejo Old Fashioned without breaking the budget.
