Necesita Añejo is a 100% agave tequila made in Mexico, bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).
As an añejo, it is rested in oak barrels for at least one year, as Mexican law requires for the category.
That time in oak softens the agave and adds caramel, vanilla and spice.
The bottle is a squat, clear decanter with a black stopper, a black label and the word 'Tequila' written in gold script.
The name Necesita, Spanish for 'need', makes it a fitting answer to the question of what to pour after a long week. It is a smooth, sippable añejo and a stylish gift.
