Jose Cuervo - Extra Anejo Reserva De Familia

Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia represents the pinnacle of production from La Rojeña, the oldest distillery in Latin America, operating continuously in Tequila, Jalisco since 1795. This extra añejo expression draws from estate-grown blue Weber agave cultivated in both 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. What sets Reserva de la Familia apart is its extended aging program, spending 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 only exceptional barrels for this limited production bottling. Each annual release features original artwork from a Mexican artist on the wooden presentation box, making it a collector's item beyond the liquid inside. The result is a tequila that bridges traditional agave character with the depth and complexity typically associated with fine cognac or aged single malt. For those seeking a sophisticated sipping tequila that rewards patience and attention, this bottle delivers genuine craftsmanship from an estate with over two centuries of continuous production.
