Lote Maestro Extra Aejo spends its long rest in American oak, emerging as a dark, sipping-style extra aejo tequila made from 100% blue agave. Time in the barrel pulls the spirit deep amber and pushes dried fruit and toasted oak to the front of the aroma. On the palate it turns silky and sweet, layering baked agave against the wood before a long, warm finish. Bottled at 40% ABV, it carries the weight of an after-dinner tequila without burying the agave underneath. Pour it neat in a snifter the way you would an aged rum or a Cognac, and give it a few minutes to open.
