It is bottled at 40% ABV.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeyenda is finished using Gran Centenario's Selección Suave process, which marries the spirit with tequila reserves aged up to fifteen years for added richness and complexity. It is made at La Perseverancia distillery in Los Altos de Jalisco, one of the oldest names in tequila.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeyenda offers aromatic notes of apple, pear, quince and raisins. The complex flavour holds subtle, sweet tones of wood with hints of maple, eucalyptus, clove and thyme, along with roasted almonds, dark chocolate, dried apricot and walnut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePresented in a tall black gift box with an angel emblem, it is an elegant gift for tequila collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat from a snifter, as you would a fine cognac.\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\u003cp\u003eTequila 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Apple, pear, quince and raisins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet wood, maple, eucalyptus, clove and roasted almonds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark chocolate, dried apricot and walnut.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gran Centenario (La Perseverancia, NOM 1122)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extra Añejo Tequila, 100% blue agave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leyenda, Selección Suave\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\u003eCask \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e French Limousin oak; married with reserves up to 15 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico\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\u003eSip it neat at room temperature.
