Corazon Single Estate Anejo Tequila

Corazón Añejo is Sazerac's highland tequila aged in the company's own bourbon barrels — Agave Spirits Journey calls it a well-priced, enjoyable regular sipper at just over $30. Casa San Matías, NOM 1103, is a family-run distillery in the Los Altos highlands founded in 1886 and led by master distiller Rocío Rodríguez; Corazón de Agave is its value-priced single-estate brand for Sazerac, the owner of Buffalo Trace, and the same house makes Rey Sol and the San Matías Tahona line. The Añejo is 100% seven-to-ten-year blue Weber agave from a single Los Altos farm, cooked forty-eight hours in clay ovens, roller-milled, fermented seventy-two hours in open-air stainless, double-distilled in stainless pots, aged more than a year in ex-bourbon American oak, and bottled at 40% ABV. Agave Spirits Journey: an understated nose that opens with thirty minutes in the glass — cooked agave, light baking spice, caramel, vanilla, barrel spice, white pepper, and red berries and citrus — with a lighter mouthfeel, not the most complex añejo but an enjoyable one. Honest note: this is the budget añejo of a serious distillery — smooth, simple, and priced to sip on a Tuesday — and the Buffalo Trace, Blanton's, and 1792 barrel store picks are where the line gets interesting. Neat, on a big cube, or in an Old Fashioned. The heart, aged.
