Casa Dragones Añejo is a small-batch tequila that is crafted from 100% blue agave. It is then matured in new French oak and new American oak barrels, each contributing their own sets of flavors and aromas to the profile. The barrels were custom-made and toasted by Casa Dragones’ own Maestro Tequilero and Master Cooper to complement their tequila perfectly. Once they have matured they are expertly blended to create the perfect balance of agave freshness and wood notes.
