Description

Chamucos Extra Añejo is a deep, dark sipper from the Jalisco valleys. The agave grows up in Los Altos, the Highlands. It is cooked in brick ovens, crushed with a roller mill and distilled twice in pot stills. Master Distiller Héctor Dávalos shaped the recipe.

The brand's name has a spooky story. Workers say they saw a dark, shadowy figure moving in the barrel cellar. The team named the tequila after it. Co-founder Cesar Hernandez is a hand-blown glass bottle artist, and the founders refined the bottle design together.

This bottling is a blend of tequilas aged three, four and five years. They rest in American white oak and French oak. All that time gives it a warm, deep amber color.

Raise the glass and roasted agave comes first. Vanilla, dark chocolate and coffee follow, then caramel, toffee and caramelized pineapple. A dash of cinnamon and a wisp of smoke round it out. The first sip feels warm, smooth and silky. Agave and toasted oak lead, with vanilla, chocolate, toffee and ripe caramelized peach. The finish lasts a very long time. In 2019 it took Double Gold in San Francisco.

Enjoy it neat or with one large cube to catch every layer. It also makes a rich Old Fashioned, and it can stand in for whiskey in a Manhattan. If you usually reach for ready-made cocktails, this is a bottle worth slowing down for. Pair it with grilled meats, aged cheese or dark chocolate. It is a special pour for any lover of fine tequila.
