Hey there, tequila lover! Let me tell you about a real gem - Espolòn Añejo Tequila. This isn't just your average tequila; it's a smooth, sophisticated spirit that's perfect for sipping or elevating your cocktail game.
So, what makes Espolòn Añejo so special? Well, it starts with 100% Blue Weber Agave, handpicked from the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. These agaves soak up the sun for 7-10 years before they're harvested - talk about patience!
Now, here's where it gets really interesting. After distillation, this tequila takes a little nap - and by little, I mean 12 months! It's aged in American oak barrels, which used to hold bourbon. This aging process is what gives Espolòn Añejo its beautiful golden amber color and adds layers of complexity to its flavor.
When you pour a glass, you'll notice aromas of caramel, vanilla, and dried fruit. Take a sip, and boom! Your taste buds are treated to a perfect balance of agave sweetness, warm spices, and just a hint of chocolate. The finish? Smooth as silk with a gentle warmth that'll make you want to go back for more.
At 80 proof (40% ABV), it's got enough kick to stand up in cocktails, but it's smooth enough to enjoy neat or on the rocks. And let's not forget that cool bottle design - it's inspired by Mexican artist José Guadalupe Posada's work, featuring a proud rooster (that's what "Espolòn" means in Spanish, by the way).
Whether you're a tequila newbie or a seasoned aficionado, Espolòn Añejo is definitely worth adding to your collection. It's that perfect middle ground between treating yourself and not breaking the bank.
So, what do you say? Ready to take your tequila experience up a notch with Espolòn Añejo?

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.
