Don Rico Tequila Añejo

Don Rico Tequila Añejo is a 40% abv spirit from Jalisco. NOM 1608 identifies this Tequilana agave expression aged in bourbon and French oak casks. Stone oven cooking and roller mill milling precede double distillation in stainless steel stills with copper coils. The nose reveals cooked agave, vanilla, and caramel before shifting to chocolate and raspberry notes. Rich plum and honey flavors dominate the palate with a long, warm finish of butterscotter and citrus elements. Deep well water supports this complex profile. The copper hue reflects its extended maturation process in dual wood types for a balanced spirit.
