EL TESORO 85TH ANNIVERSARY

In honor of the 85th anniversary of La Alteña, home of El Tesoro, we’ve created an extra Añejo tequila rich with the spirit of two family legacies.

To create this unparalleled expression, we worked with our friend and Jim Beam Master Distiller, Fred Noe, aging our tequila in the legendary Booker's 30th anniversary barrels for over three years. The result is a complex spirit layered with sweetness, oak and cooked agave. It's a tequila deserving of the legacies that brought it to life.
