Don Ramon Anejo Tequila (750Ml)

Description

Don Ramón Añejo comes from Casa Don Ramón, a tequila house founded in Jalisco, Mexico, in 1996. It is made from 100% blue Weber agave grown in the Highlands of Jalisco. The ripe piñas are baked slowly for several days to release their sweet juice. After fermentation, the tequila is double distilled.

As an añejo, it then rests for at least a year in American oak barrels. That time in wood gives it a warm amber color. It also rounds off the agave and adds a gentle sweetness. Bottled at 40% ABV, it stays smooth enough to sip slowly.

Bring the glass to your nose and you will find sweet cooked agave and soft, woody notes. The first sip is rich and full. Caramel and wood come forward, joined by plum and other dried fruit. Warm spices such as cinnamon and clove build toward the end. The finish is long and gently peppery, so the spice stays with you.

Casa Don Ramón is known for eye-catching bottles. Limited releases are dressed in Swarovski crystals. That makes this añejo a lovely gift, and a bottle you may want to keep on display once it is empty.

You will get the most from it neat or over a single large ice cube. It also works in a tequila Old Fashioned when you want an agave twist on a classic. At the table, try it with grilled meats, rich mole, aged cheeses or a square of dark chocolate.
