Olmeca Altos Añejo is the barrel-aged expression of the Los Altos range, made from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the highlands around Arandas, Jalisco. The agave is cooked in brick ovens, part-crushed by tahona and double distilled in copper pots before resting in ex-bourbon American oak. Created in 2009 by Henry Besant and Dre Masso with maestro tequilero Jesus Hernandez at Destileria Colonial de Jalisco, it trades the Plata's green snap for dried fruit, almond, vanilla and chocolate while cooked agave remains at the centre. It pours amber and is suited to sipping neat or in a Tequila Old Fashioned.
