To celebrate El Mayor’s 25th anniversary, Master Distiller Rodolfo Gonzalez selected 25 barrels of the distillery’s oldest stock to create a limited-edition tequila: El Mayor Extra Añejo Bourbon Barrel Aged.
This tequila aged for 39 months in American oak bourbon barrels. It was distilled from Blue Weber agave from the valley area of Jalisco, Mexico.
A limited allocation of approximately 6,000 bottles will be available at a suggested retail price of $129.99 per 750-ml. bottle. It’s available nationwide in July.
“This limited-edition Extra Añejo tequila is the culmination of 25 years of knowledge, expertise and innovation,” says Graciela Gonzalez, fourth-generation distiller and daughter of Rodolfo Gonzalez. “The result is an extraordinarily smooth, well-balanced tequila with elegant oak hints, baking spices and dried fruit on the nose and palate. It’s a gorgeous expression worthy of marking such a significant milestone.”
The El Mayor 25th Anniversary Extra Añejo Bourbon Barrel Aged bottle has a silver label and embossed detail around the neck. It is packaged in a black box with silver markings meant to complement the label.
