Description

Oak barrel maturation shapes Cantera Negra's añejo. The tequila takes on a rich amber color, with wood and spice central to its character. Cantera Negra brings those aged flavors together in a spirit with a smooth texture and a pronounced oak presence. Cinnamon and vanilla provide a recurring thread from aroma to taste.

The nose leads with cinnamon, followed by toasted oak and sweet vanilla. On the palate, cinnamon keeps its gentle bite. Caramel and toffee join the oak, while a little smoke adds contrast. Vanilla gives the texture a creamy, velvety quality alongside the warmer spice.

Serve neat or over ice, sipping slowly. For an Añejo Old Fashioned, combine a sugar cube and aromatic bitters, add ice and two ounces of tequila, then stir. Finish with an orange twist.
