EXTRA AÑEJO
100% AGAVE · JALISCO
Bottle placeholder — Extra Añejo
Red soil, blue agave, thin air. Nothing hurried.
Agave fields — aerial, dawn — video/image placeholderAguavida grows on a single estate in the highlands, where volcanic soil and cold nights force the agave to store its sugar slowly.
Seven years per plant. One harvest per plant. Forty kilos of piña for every bottle of Blanco. This is why the spirit tastes of stone and honey rather than heat — patience is the first ingredient.
01
Blue Weber · 7 years
Seven years in volcanic soil. The piña swells to eighty kilos — starch dense, sugar patient.
02
Jimador · single cut
Cut by hand at dawn, before the heat lifts the sugars. No machines. Six jimadores, one estate.
03
Stone oven · 72 hours
Slow-roasted in masonry ovens for three days. Caramelisation without smoke — honey, not fire.
04
Copper pot · twice
Double-distilled in copper alembics. Heads and tails cut wide — we keep only the heart.

Steel, bourbon oak, French oak, cognac cask. Each expression waits its own appointed time.
