The highlands' elevation and iron-rich red clay soils yield agave with higher sugar content and fruitier character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction starts the day the agave is harvested and includes a two-stage fermentation with a proprietary strain of yeast, followed by double distillation in small pot stills and aging in new American white oak barrels under the eye of maestro tequilero Jesús Susunaga. More than three years in wood give the extra añejo a deep golden color and enrich its agave-forward profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVanilla leads, with notes of cinnamon, roasted apples and nutmeg, and the palate is smooth and velvety, with cooked agave, caramelized fruit, dark chocolate and hints of oak. The finish is long and elegant, with lingering warmth. It earned a Double Gold Medal at the 2014 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExtra añejo is the most mature category of tequila, created in 2006 for tequilas aged more than three years in oak barrels of no more than 600 litres. The long rest softens the agave's natural pepper and brings out caramel, vanilla and dried fruit, which is why extra añejos are usually enjoyed neat, like a fine cognac or whisky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanilla, roasted apple, cinnamon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cooked agave, nutmeg, dark chocolate, oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, elegant and warm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tequila Cazadores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Arandas, Jalisco (NOM 1487)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extra añejo tequila\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% highland blue Weber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAging:\u003c\/strong\u003e At least 3 years in new American oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double, small pot stills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade for slow sipping neat; it also pairs beautifully with steak, pasta or flan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is it aged?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt least three years in new American oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is it made?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the highland town of Arandas, Jalisco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it taste?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVanilla, cinnamon, roasted apple and nutmeg, smooth and velvety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tequila\"\u003eTequila collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cazadores","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68030165090613,"sku":"VWS_200419548","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-28852.webp?v=1793734626","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/cazadores-extra-anejo-tequila-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
