Código 1530 Añejo is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila aged 18 months in Napa Valley Cabernet French white oak barrels, bottled at 40% ABV.
Código 1530 follows time-honoured customs, never adding chemicals, flavourings or sweeteners, to keep the rich flavour of Los Bajos agave. It uses only fully matured blue Weber agave and Amatitán water from freshwater pools and rainwater, filtered through the volcanic soil of Los Bajos, and its proprietary chopper extracts only the best juice and pulp from the first press of the agave.
The 18 months in Napa Cabernet French oak, a time-honoured family aging technique, give this añejo a uniquely delicate finish.
Código 1530 Añejo won Double Gold at the 2023 TAG Global Spirits Awards and the 2022 SIP Awards.
Enjoy it neat, on the rocks, or in a tequila Manhattan.
Añejo tequila is aged between one and three years in oak barrels of no more than 600 litres, long enough to add colour, sweetness and spice while keeping the character of the agave, which makes it a natural sipping tequila.
Tequila can only be made from blue Weber agave in five designated Mexican states, chiefly Jalisco, and the finest bottlings are made from 100% agave. Sipping tequila is best enjoyed from a narrow-rimmed glass that concentrates the aromas, at room temperature and without salt or lime, so the character of the agave and the barrel can come through.
