Pintoresco Añejo is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila presented in a striking black-and-white ceramic decanter. The round bottle, hand-decorated with flowers and fruit around a square opening at its centre, holds a full litre of añejo tequila at 40% ABV.
Añejo tequila rests between one and three years in oak barrels, long enough to add colour, sweetness and spice while keeping the character of the agave. The result is a smooth sipping tequila with cooked agave and oak in balance.
Pintoresco, meaning picturesque, pairs its tequilas with decorative ceramic decanters inspired by Mexican folk art. The Añejo's monochrome design is the elegant counterpart to the brightly coloured decanter of Pintoresco Extra Añejo, and the two make a handsome pair on a bar shelf.
With its one-liter size and display-worthy bottle, Pintoresco Añejo is a generous gift for a tequila drinker or a collector of Mexican design.
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.
