Arette Artesanal Anejo Tequila

Arette Artesanal Añejo Tequila is a beautifully mature and complex spirit produced by the esteemed Orendain family at Destileria El Llano in the heart of the Tequila Valley. Staying true to their time-honored artisanal methods, this añejo is crafted from estate-grown 100% Blue Weber agave that is slow-roasted in traditional brick masonry ovens, fermented with native yeasts in open-air concrete vats, and double-distilled in copper pot stills. It is then carefully aged for 14 to 18 months in American white oak barrels, creating a profound, deeply characterful tequila that seamlessly balances the vibrant, earthy essence of the agave with rich, luxurious notes developed from prolonged oak maturation.

Food Pairing: Perfect for pairing with rich, savory dishes like mole poblano, grilled ribeye steak, or smoked meats, as well as decadent desserts such as dark chocolate lava cake, churros with caramel dipping sauce, or traditional flan.

Tasting Notes : Deep amber-gold in appearance, offering a rich, smooth, and full-bodied mouthfeel on the palate.

Nose : Cooked agave, sweet vanilla, toasted oak, caramel, subtle cinnamon, and light citrus peel.

Palate : Velvety and rich with flavors of caramelized agave, oak spice, dark vanilla, dried fruit, and a hint of white pepper.

Finish : Long, warm, and elegant with lingering oak sweetness and soft spice.

Serve : Best served neat or on the rocks in a Riedel tequila glass or Glencairn to appreciate its complex aged profile.
