Distiller Notes
Made from the agave grown in Amatitan, Mexico. Aged for 4 years in newly charred French oak barrels, and hand selected by Joel and Richard, for our very special collection. This is a very expensive process that produces a super premium tequila. Hand crafted, double distilled, and made in very small batches, this is a limited edition, as there were only 4500 bottles produced for this specific Joel Richard collection. Tailored to perfection!

Because of their great complexity, Anejo Tequilas are most often used as a substitute for Brandy or Whiskey in cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned. Anejo Tequilas must be aged in oak barrels for between one and three years, while Extra Anejo refers to any Tequila aged longer than three years. The prolonged contact with the oak barrel allows the wood to make a much stronger impression on the Tequila by adding toffee, caramel and vanilla to the sweet, spicy agave flavor profile.
