Casa Dragones Barrel Blend Anejo Tequila

Refined and deeply elegant, Casa Dragones Añejo Barrel Blend is crafted for true sipping. Aged separately in new French oak and new American oak, then artfully blended, it unveils fresh pear and florals over fig and almond, unfolding to macadamia, nutmeg and blackberry. The finish is long and round with cacao and a gentle black pepper glow—an exquisite after-dinner tequila and a standout luxury gift.

Tasting Notes & Experience

Lifted aromas of fresh pear and white florals lead to subtle fig and roasted almond. The palate is silk-textured with notes of macadamia, nutmeg and dark berry. A lingering, rounded finish carries refined cacao and a whisper of peppered spice.

Craftsmanship & Story

Casa Dragones set out to create a sipping Añejo of uncommon finesse. Two distinct maturations—one in new French oak, one in new American oak—are blended to heighten agave purity while layering spice, nut and cacao complexity. Bottled in small batches, each bottle is hand-signed and numbered, reflecting the house’s meticulous attention to detail and its San Miguel de Allende heritage.
