Doña Mariana
2012 Luna Nueva Añejo
2012 Luna Nueva Añejo is a tequila aged in oak barrels for at least one year. Tequila, protected by Mexican law since 1974, must come from blue agave grown in Jalisco and specific neighboring states. The añejo classification requires extended wood contact, resulting in deeper color and more barrel character than younger expressions. This spirit meets the standard of spending time in vessels no larger than 600 liters. It stands as a clear example of this aged category within the regulated tequila landscape.
