Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is an extra añejo built for slow sipping: 100% blue weber agave from Jalisco, produced at La Alteña Distillery, established in 1937 by Don Felipe Camarena, and aged a minimum of three years. The nose opens with orange zest, caramel, and a rye-like grain note over oak and spice, while the palate deepens into pipe tobacco, coffee, dark chocolate, dried fruit, and roasted almonds. It is full-bodied and smooth at 80 proof, so it works as a first serious extra añejo for a drinker coming from aged whiskey, and as a meaningful bottle for the agave collector who values heritage producers. What sets it apart on the shelf is lineage: El Tesoro remains one of the few tequilas to fully embrace age-old techniques, and this expression shows how that tradition holds up through extended aging. We carry it because it rewards attention, and because it pairs as naturally with a dessert plate or a cigar as it does with quiet conversation.
Pairs well with
- Dark chocolate truffles — The tequila's own dark chocolate and coffee notes meet the truffle's richness and stretch the finish.
- Almond biscotti with coffee pastries — Roasted almond and coffee flavors on the palate echo the biscotti and pastry for a seamless dessert course.
- After-dinner cigar session — Pipe tobacco, oak, and baking spice in the glass make it a natural companion to a fine cigar.
