Distiller Notes
The first exquisite small batch of Tres Generaciones Tequila, just 100 numbered ceramic bottles, was created by Third Generation Don Francisco Javier Sauza as a memorial to his family’s 100 years of wisdom, skill, and courage. When close friends and family tasted this tequila that was so exquisite and so refined, Don Francisco decided that every tequila lover deserved the chance to enjoy this tribute to his family’s achievements. Tres Generaciones Anejo has a rich, 100% blue agave flavor enhanced by 12 months in toasted American Oak barrels where it gains its delicate amber hue, an array of subtle flavors, and its unique smooth, smoky finish.
Full and balanced. Starts with brown sugar, fades soft oak and clean agave.
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.
