About San Matias Tahona Anejo
San Matias Tahona Anejo is a premium tequila aged 12 months in American oak barrels, created to celebrate Casa San Matias's 130th anniversary. This spirit stands out for its use of the traditional tahona method—a labor-intensive stone wheel process that extracts sugars from cooked agaves, resulting in a more complex, agave-forward profile than conventional production methods. The Anejo expression balances the earthy, vegetal character of tahona-produced tequila with subtle oak influence and chocolate notes, making it ideal for sipping neat or on the rocks. At 40% ABV, it represents an artisanal approach that prioritizes quality and craftsmanship over efficiency, appealing to tequila enthusiasts who appreciate traditional production techniques and nuanced flavor development.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The aroma features ripe pears, vanilla, and cinnamon rolls with hints of poppy pepper. These scents reflect both the cooked agave base and the American oak aging, creating an inviting and complex bouquet that suggests the layered flavors to come.
👅 Palate
Deep agave sweetness dominates the palate, complemented by light touches of oak, chocolate, bruleed orange, and cinnamon. The mouthfeel is full-rounded and creamy, with the barrel influence artfully balanced to enhance rather than overpower the core agave character.
✨ Finish
The finish is lasting, sweet, and full-bodied, leaving lingering notes of caramel and chocolate. A subtle pepper bite and minerality add complexity without harsh alcohol burn, culminating in a smooth, satisfying conclusion.
