Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia comes from La Rojeña, the oldest distillery in Latin America, operating continuously in Tequila, Jalisco since 1795. This extra añejo draws from estate-grown blue Weber agave cultivated in the mineral-rich lowland valleys surrounding the town of Tequila and select highland parcels.
The agaves are slow-roasted in traditional brick ovens before fermentation and double distillation in copper pot stills. Aging runs a minimum of three years in a combination of new and once-used American oak barrels, with some batches incorporating French oak.
The blending is overseen by the Cuervo family's master distillers, who select barrels for this limited production bottling. Each annual release features original artwork from a Mexican artist on the wooden presentation box.
The tequila shows traditional agave character alongside the depth and complexity associated with fine cognac or aged single malt. La Rojeña has operated continuously for over two centuries.
