The Agave de Cortés Mezcal Artesanal AÑEJO 45.6% is a high-quality mezcal artesanal from Oaxaca that combines traditional craftsmanship with extended barrel ageing. Made from 100% agave and produced using traditional methods, this añejo mezcal stands for authenticity, origin and careful processing. The agave is roasted in earth pits over hot stones, then fermented and distilled in traditional copper stills. This artisanal production gives mezcal from Mexico its characteristic depth and smoky flavour.

In contrast to a Joven or Reposado, this Mezcal Añejo 45.6% matures over a longer period in oak barrels. The barrel ageing gives it additional complexity, warm woody notes and a harmonious balance between smoke and sweetness. The Agave de Cortés Añejo combines the typical agave intensity with elegant mature flavours and is aimed at connoisseurs looking for a structured, mature premium mezcal. With its increased alcohol strength, this bottling is powerful yet balanced.

Agave de Cortés Mezcal Artesanal Añejo is an excellent accompaniment to grilled meat such as beef tacos, lamb or carne asada, as its smoky and woody notes intensify the roasted flavours.

This mature mezcal from Oaxaca unfolds its sweet and spicy depth particularly well with desserts such as caramelised flan or nut biscuits. Served neat in a mezcal glass or with a few drops of water, this Añejo Premium Mezcal offers a balanced, powerful and long-lasting enjoyment experience.
