Adictivo Extra Rare 14 Year Old Sherry Cask Finish Extra Anejo Tequila

Fourteen years in oak and a sherry-cask finish — Adictivo Extra Rare is one of the longest-aged tequilas ever released, in a deep reddish pour that looks more like a tawny port than agave. Adictivo is made by master distiller Gildardo Partida at NOM 1653 in El Arenal, Jalisco, from a family that's made tequila for over a century; the house style is rich and sweet, built for the sipping drinker who came from Cognac or bourbon, and Extra Rare is its pinnacle. It's 100% blue Weber agave slow-cooked in brick ovens, fermented with natural yeast, distilled in copper, aged fourteen years in oak, and finished in sherry casks, bottled at 40% ABV in a bottle-etched limited edition. Sip Tequila: rich wood aromatics with warm vanilla, then bold oak giving way to soft vanilla and fleeting ripe fruit, and a long, luxurious finish of rolling sweetness. Blackwell's: oak spice, vanilla bean, toasted wood, dried fruit, caramel, and subtle tobacco — lush, velvet-textured, best for contemplative sipping. Honest note: fourteen years takes tequila past the point where most agave survives the barrel, and no major spirits publication has scored it — this is a collector's bottle for the extra añejo and sherry-cask devotee, priced accordingly, and the house's sweet style is in full effect. Neat, in a wide snifter, slowly, with a cigar. Fourteen years, in sherry wood.
