Tierra Caballos Tequila Añejo 65th Anniversary edition is a monumental tribute to the heritage and craftsmanship of one of the most respected tequila producers. This exquisite 750ml offering is a testament to the artistry and dedication that has defined the distillery's legacy over six and a half decades. Crafted from 100% blue agave, harvested at the peak of its maturity from the rich volcanic soils of Jalisco, Mexico, each agave plant is carefully selected for its high sugar content, ensuring a tequila of unparalleled flavor and depth.
The production process of Tierra Caballos Tequila Añejo 65th Anniversary is steeped in tradition, with the agave hearts, or piñas, slow-cooked in stone ovens to extract the sweetest nectar. This liquid gold is then fermented with a proprietary yeast blend, distilled in copper pot stills to achieve a smooth, refined spirit, and aged in oak barrels for a minimum of three years. This extended aging period far exceeds the industry standard for añejo tequilas, allowing the spirit to develop a rich, complex profile, with deep amber hues, a velvety texture, and an exquisite balance of flavors.
Upon tasting, the Tierra Caballos Tequila Añejo unfolds in layers of sophistication and sensory delight. The initial aroma is a captivating blend of vanilla, caramel, and oak, with subtle hints of citrus and cooked agave. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious fusion of sweet and spicy notes, including dark chocolate, cinnamon, and a touch of pepper, culminating in a long, smooth finish that lingers with the warmth of toasted oak and a whisper of smoke. This anniversary edition is not just a drink, but a celebration of heritage, a journey through the rich tapestry of Mexican culture and the fine art of tequila making.
