Sangre de Vida Añejo is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila aged for one year in American oak barrels, bottled at 40% ABV in a hand-painted, anatomically heart-shaped bottle.
Sangre de Vida, meaning blood of life, is crafted from carefully harvested blue agave in Jalisco and is additive-free. The year in oak gives a rich, complex and smooth flavour, and each bottle is hand-painted with motifs inspired by the rich history and culture of Mexico.
The aroma brings agave, oak, caramelised honey, mahogany, chocolate, vanilla, flowers and pear. The taste balances sweetness and agave with oak, honey and vanilla over a rich, full body, and the finish is layered and lengthy, with earthy richness.
Its striking heart-shaped bottle makes it a memorable gift.
Sip it neat, or enjoy it in your favourite cocktail.
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.
