Hacienda de Chihuahua Añejo is actually not a tequila, but a premium Sotol. While many liquor stores mistakenly label it as a "Sotol Tequila", true tequila is distilled strictly from the blue Weber agave plant in specific regions of Mexico. In contrast, Sotol is crafted from the wild-harvested Desert Spoon plant (Dasylirion wheeleri) native to the Chihuahuan desert.
Product Overview
- Classification: Sotol (often cross-categorized under mezcal or tequila by retailers).
- Distillation: Triple distilled in a double column copper alembic still for maximum purity.
- Fermentation: Fermented using champagne yeast rather than standard distiller's yeast.
- Aging Process: Matured for 2 years in brand new French white oak barrels.
- Alcohol by Volume (ABV): Typically bottled at 38% ABV (76 proof).
Flavor Profile & Tasting Notes
2-year French oak aging gives this spirit a distinct flavor profile:
- Aroma: A vibrant, evolving bouquet featuring earthy agave notes, vanilla, sweet butterscotch, and a light touch of desert flora.
- Palate: Remarkably smooth and creamy. It leads with prominent notes of vanilla bean, caramel, brown sugar, and oak, balanced by unique tropical hints of pineapple and coconut.
- Finish: Clean, mellow, and slightly briny with a mineral, peppery tail
