Description
Imperio Del Don Extra Anejo 10 Year Old Don Carlos 750ml
- WHY: Not only is a legit 10 year old Tequila rare to see in this day and age, to get more than a decade of maturation for under $200 is even rarer. This legacy batch of Extra Añejo is almost more like a whiskey than a Tequila, bringing oak spice and vanilla in combination with baking spices like cinnamon and clove. Simply put: it’s an incredible Tequila for an incredible price.
- HOW: The four Orendain brothers—Carlos, Alfonso, Jaime, and Juan Jose—who are also all Tequila distillers, converged to create this spectacular tribute to their late father. Using Don Eduardo’s private and forgotten casks, the brothers produced and aged this tequila using his original recipe, including hand-harvested agave from a very special plantation on Tepecoste Hill.
- WHAT: Famous tequila distiller Don Eduardo Orendain Gonzalez founded the beloved Tequila Orendain in 1926. The Orendain name stands along side Cuervo, Sauza, and Don Julio Gonzalez as one of the original Tequila producing families in Jalisco, and is synonymous with quality in the region.
