Chinaco Añejo Tequila 700ml
Chinaco Añejo Tequila 700ml
Chinaco Añejo Tequila 700ml - a premium tequila that comes in a 700ml bottle. It is named after the independent landowners who fought for Mexico's independence in the 18th century. Since 1972, Chinaco has produced excellent tequilas at their family-owned and operated distillery, La Gonzaleña. The distillery pays homage to General Manuel Gonzalez, the hero of the Cinco de Mayo battle and the former president of Mexico from 1880 until 1884.
This Añejo tequila is aged for 35 months in a mix of Scotch white oak barrels and ex-bourbon barrels, resulting in a silky-smooth texture and a beautiful oak and caramel character. The distillery describes the añejo as having subtle aromas of pear, wildflowers, vanilla, smoke, and baked apple, with a hint of papaya and mango. The rich and complex flavors offer exceptional depth, balance, and style, and the tequila finishes with a luscious, spicy, smoky finish.
Chinaco Añejo Tequila is an excellent addition to any liquor collection and is perfect for sipping on its own or as a key ingredient in cocktails. Its smooth and complex flavor profile, rich history, and family-owned operation make this tequila a unique and special choice for tequila lovers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is all your inventory online?
We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.
Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?
Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.
However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.
What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
