Purasangre 5 Years Old Gran Reserva Extra Anejo Tequila

Purasangre Gran Reserva is Enrique Fonseca's five-year extra añejo — the Fuenteseca distiller's own-label aged tequila, at a fraction of the Fuenteseca price. Fonseca is a fourth-generation agavero, one of the largest independent growers in Jalisco, and the distiller at La Tequileña, NOM 1146, in the town of Tequila; Purasangre is his own-label line — pure blood — alongside Fuenteseca and Cimarrón, and Fonseca began laying down extra añejo before anyone thought tequila could survive it. The Gran Reserva is 100% blue Weber agave from Fonseca's estates, slow-cooked in low-pressure ovens, distilled in his combination of pot and column stills, aged five years in oak in Fonseca's aging rooms, and bottled at 40% ABV, additive-free; check your bottle for the cask details. Five years from the man behind Fuenteseca 7 through 21: expect a nose of cooked agave, Cognac, dried apricot, and oak, opening into a rounded, spiced palate of caramel, vanilla, dried fruit, and black pepper with a long, warm, dry finish — the same house style Sip Tequila found in the Fuenteseca 7, a little younger. Honest note: the best-kept secret in Fonseca's range — a five-year extra añejo from the deepest aging program in tequila, without the Fuenteseca label or price. Neat, in a Glencairn, after dinner. Pure blood, five years.
