El Tesoro 85th Anniversary Extra Añejo Tequila

El Tesoro 85th Anniversary Extra Añejo Tequila is a rare, commemorative release that celebrates over eight decades of traditional tequila craftsmanship. Created in honor of La Alteña Distillery’s legacy, this expression represents a meticulous blend of aged tequilas, showcasing both time and expertise at the highest level.

Produced from 100% blue Weber agave grown in the highlands of Jalisco, it follows traditional methods including slow cooking in brick ovens and extraction using a tahona wheel, preserving the natural character of the agave. The tequila is then aged for an extended period in oak barrels, allowing it to develop a deep and highly integrated profile.

This anniversary edition is crafted as a blend of extra añejo tequilas of varying ages, resulting in a layered and harmonious character. Bottled at a higher proof than standard expressions, it delivers a rich and full-bodied experience with a smooth, luxurious texture.

The profile leans into complex notes of cooked agave, caramel, and vanilla, supported by dried fruits, toasted oak, and warm baking spices. Additional layers of chocolate, nuts, and subtle earthy tones add depth, while the extended aging contributes to a refined, slightly smoky richness.

The finish is long, elegant, and well-balanced, with lingering sweetness, oak, and spice. Produced in limited quantities and presented in a premium, collectible format, the 85th Anniversary edition stands as a tribute to tradition, patience, and craftsmanship, offering a sophisticated and deeply expressive tequila experience.
