Herradura Anejo Tequila

Product Description

Herradura Añejo Tequila: 25-Month Oak Maturation with Agave, Nuts, Citrus, and Spice

Herradura Añejo Tequila is a long-matured añejo crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave. Herradura currently states that the expression spends 25 months in barrel, extending beyond the minimum añejo requirement to build deeper wood, nut, fruit, and spice character around the slow-roasted agave.

The official profile describes a toasted-toffee color with copper tones. Intense agave and toasted oak lead the aroma, joined by candied nuts, cinnamon, and citrus. On the palate, deep nutty caramel is balanced by pineapple and orange before a smooth, sweet finish of warm baking spices.

This is a sipping-focused tequila with enough richness for after-dinner service, but it can also bring mature agave and oak depth to a carefully measured Añejo Old Fashioned or Manhattan-style tequila cocktail.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Intense roasted agave, toasted oak, candied nuts, cinnamon, and citrus peel.
• Palate: Deep nutty caramel, pineapple, orange, aged wood, and warm spice.
• Finish: Smooth and sweet, with lingering baking spice, caramel, oak, and agave.

Food Pairings

Pair with grilled steak, carnitas, mole, roasted nuts, aged cheese, orange-glazed pork, pineapple desserts, dark chocolate, or cinnamon pastries. Its mature oak character also suits smoked and charred foods.

Serving Suggestions

Serve neat in a tequila or tasting glass and give it several minutes to open. Add a few drops of water or one large cube if preferred. For a cocktail, use a restrained amount of sweetener and bitters in an Añejo Old Fashioned.
