Sauza 1873 Edición Limitada is a limited edition extra añejo created to celebrate 150 years of Sauza tequila. Housed in a sculpted bottle with a crystal stopper and presented in a premium gift box, it pays tribute to La Perseverancia, the historic distillery where Don Cenobio Sauza founded the house in 1873. It is bottled at 40% ABV.
La Perseverancia in the town of Tequila is where Sauza's story began, and it remains the heart of the brand. For the anniversary, Sauza blended extra añejo tequilas aged between four and ten years in American white oak barrels, a remarkable age range for tequila and a fitting tribute to a century and a half of distilling.
Long ageing gives a smooth, complex tequila. A honeyed citrus aroma opens onto agave sweetness and woody notes, with honey, vanilla and citrus on the palate and a lingering woody finish.
The squat, faceted bottle carries a medallion reading La Perseverancia, 150 and 1873, and the crystal stopper and gift box make it a striking collector's piece. It is a memorable gift and a piece of tequila history.
For anyone who has enjoyed Sauza over the years, this anniversary bottle is the brand at its most refined.
