HERRADURA Añejo. Aged to perfection. Blending modern and traditional distilling techniques, añejo was first introduced to the world by Casa Herradura in 1962. Since then Herradura Añejo has aged in American White Oak barrels for 25 months – an incredible 13 months beyond industry standards. The result is a remarkably smooth, amber-colored liquid that melts on your tongue leaving notes of cooked agave, toasted oak and dried fruit. TASTING NOTES:. Aroma: Rich aromas of agave, chocolate, pineapple and dried cherry appear along with oak and vanilla tones. Palate: In the mouth, this is a rich and mouth-coating spirit, with flavors similar to the nose creating a lively counterpoint to the cinnamon and caramel also found. Finish: The finish is long and lasting, with gentle fruit notes giving way to a soft cinnamon note with hints of earth and minerality.
