Laelia Añejo Tequila — 750ml | 40% ABV

A Refined Expression of Aged Highland Agave Laelia Añejo is a premium 100% Blue Weber Agave spirit produced in the Jalisco Highlands (Los Altos). This "Añejo" (aged) expression undergoes a patient maturation process in American Oak barrels for a minimum of 12 months. This extended aging transforms the vibrant, peppery character of the Highland agave into a complex, amber-hued spirit with a silky texture and a sophisticated wood-driven profile.

Traditional Craftsmanship and Maturation Produced at NOM 1438—a distillery renowned for balancing traditional methods with modern precision—Laelia Añejo utilizes slow-cooked agave hearts and meticulous distillation to ensure a clean, rich base. The time spent in charred oak imparts classic notes of vanilla and spice that complement the natural sweetness of the agave, making it an exceptional choice for neat sipping or as a base for high-end cocktails like an Añejo Old Fashioned.
