Azulejos "Happy Holidays" Añejo Tequila — 1.75L | 40% ABV

Price: $356.99 Regular price:

A Celebration of Mexican Artistry and Aged Agave This limited-edition "Happy Holidays" release features the award-winning Azulejos Añejo Tequila housed in a hand-painted, magnum-sized 1.75L Talavera ceramic decanter. While the bottle is a festive masterpiece, the spirit inside is a serious, 100% Blue Weber Agave Tequila aged for a minimum of 18 months in French Oak barrels. This extended maturation transforms the vibrant agave into a sophisticated sipping spirit with the complexity of a fine cognac.

Traditional Craftsmanship and Heritage Produced at NOM 1438, Azulejos utilizes traditional brick ovens (hornos) to slow-cook the agave hearts for up to 48 hours. This gentle cooking process preserves the natural sugars and prevents the bitter, smoky notes found in mass-produced spirits. The 1.75L "Magnum" format is designed for holiday hosting or high-value gifting, offering twice the volume of a standard bottle in a collectible vessel that remains a centerpiece long after the tequila is enjoyed.

Detailed Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Deep, brilliant gold with copper highlights and exceptionally slow, heavy legs.

  • Aroma: A rich, inviting bouquet of salted caramel, toasted oak, and cooked agave, followed by notes of dried pineapple and white chocolate.

  • Palate: Full-bodied and velvety. Initial flavors of buttery vanilla and cinnamon are balanced by earthy agave and a hint of roasted nuts.

  • Finish: Remarkably long and warming; a clean, sophisticated exit with lingering notes of dark chocolate and sweet oak spice.
