Pura Sangre Extra Añejo (5 yr)
A testament to exceptional care and craftsmanship, Pura Sangre Extra Añejo is a 100% Agave tequila, meticulously crafted to rival the world's finest whiskies and cognacs.
Master distiller Enrique Fonseca employs a unique distillation technique. He starts with earthy Atotonilco El Alto agave distilled in stainless steel alembic pot stills, followed by a second distillation in copper pots. This, combined with aging for five years in French oak casks, results in a rich, balanced tequila with a distinctive agave character unique to the high-altitude Atotonilco region (5,200').
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: Expect a complex bouquet that hints at its extended aging. Initial notes of rich caramel and vanilla mingle with the earthy sweetness of cooked agave. Subtle hints of dried fruit, such as fig or raisin, emerge, with delicate spice notes like cinnamon and a touch of clove.
- Palate: The entry is smooth and luxurious, coating the palate with a velvety texture. The distinctive agave flavor from the Atotonilco highlands shines through, beautifully integrated with the influence of the French oak. Notes of toffee, dark chocolate, and a whisper of tobacco create a sophisticated profile. The oak imparts a pleasant warmth and subtle tannins, adding depth and structure.
- Finish: Long and lingering, the finish leaves a warm and satisfying impression. The notes of oak and spice persist alongside a pleasant sweetness and a final hint of that distinctive highland agave.
Pura Sangre Extra Añejo is an exceptional tequila designed for discerning palates. Savor its complexity neat to appreciate the artistry and dedication poured into every bottle fully.

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.
