Description

Inaki Orozco founded Riazul in the desert highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Family heritage and a connection to the land guide the producer's identity. The añejo brings that regional story into an aged tequila bottled at 40% ABV. Its character centers on agave and oak, with sweet notes adding further detail to the tasting.

Rich amber in the glass, it opens with roasted agave, vanilla, and toasted oak. Caramel and warm spices add layers to the nose. The palate has a velvety feel, beginning with sweet agave before oak, toffee, and a touch of butterscotch join in. Each gives another angle on the agave and wood combination.

Serve neat in a tequila glass or snifter, allowing time between sips. For a cocktail, use it as the base of an Old Fashioned to explore its aged character in a different setting.
