Cascahuin Anejo
Cascahuin Añejo tequila is produced by ‘Cascahuin’, a family-owned tequila producer founded in 1904 by Salvador Rosales Briseño, Cascahuin has proudly stayed within the family ever since then. The distillery they use now was built in 1955, situated in the town of El Arenal, found in the home of tequila - Jalisco, Mexico.
Cascahuin has dedicated themselves to making their tequila using slower traditional artisanal methods, rather than switching to more modern methods which are quicker, cheaper and easier but have a negative impact on the quality and taste.
Alongside Cascahuin Añejo, the brand offers 4 other brilliant variations of their best tequila, the full range can be viewed here (click to explore).
What makes Cascahuin Añejo tequila special?
Cascahuin Añejo is a beautiful premium tequila that’s aged in American oak barrels for 14 to 16 months which really brings out the flavour of the agave and adds a hint of oak, a class combination.
Cascahuin still use a ‘Tahona wheel’ to make their Cascahuin Añejo tequila. This is a big stone made of volcano rock that used to be pulled by a mule or a horse (now a machine is used instead to pull the wheel because Mexicans love animals) to crush the cooked agave to get at the sweet juice called ‘aguamiel’ to be turned into this amazing tequila.
Cascahuin doesn’t use any chemicals, preservatives, artificial sweeteners or any of that rubbish to make their tequila, so if you want to experience the REAL, natural taste of an añejo, Cascahuin Añejo is the perfect choice for you. It’s also made using deep well spring water, adding the extra level of purity to the mix.
Cascahuin Añejo Tequila is made using copper distillation pots. Copper’s the perfect heat conductor for making spirits, but a lot of distilleries sacrifice quality by using stainless steel because it’s easier to clean and cheaper. Cascahuin’s use of copper gives you a crisper tasting tequila with richer flavours.
