CASA DRAGONES TEQUILA ANEJO 750ML

Casa Dragones Añejo is a premium 100% Blue Weber agave tequila crafted for sipping and appreciation rather than just mixing. It stands out for its careful dual‑barrel aging and blending, delivering a refined, complex profile with both agave purity and oak‑derived depth.

General Profile

1. Type: Añejo tequila
2. Base Spirit: 100% Blue Weber agave
3. Alcohol: ~40% ABV (80 proof)
4. Region: Jalisco, Mexico
5. Aging: Matured separately in new French oak and new American oak barrels, then expertly blended to balance wood influence with agave character.

Añejo means “aged,” referring to tequila that has spent extended time in oak (usually 1–3 years), resulting in richer flavors and smoother texture than younger expressions.

Style & Character

Appearance: Light caramel or golden amber with bright hues and pronounced legs in the glass.

Aroma: Fresh floral and pear notes balanced with fig, almond, and subtle oak spice derived from the wood.

Palate: Smooth and silky, layered with macadamia, nutmeg, blackberry, butterscotch, ripe fig, and gentle vanilla sweetness.

Finish: Long and refined, with lingering cacao, subtle spicy black pepper, warm oak, and sweet agave nuances.

Overall, this tequila conveys agave forward richness with balanced oak complexity, ideal for sipping slowly.

2. After aging, the barrels are blended to create a harmonious, layered expression that emphasizes both agave purity and nuanced wood influence.
