La Serpiente Emplumada Tequila Añejo is the deeper, more mature side of the collection, made for drinkers who enjoy oak-aged tequila with warmth, spice and a graceful fruit-led finish. Añejo means "aged", and this expression takes the vivid Mexican identity of La Serpiente Emplumada into a richer style suited to slow sipping, gifting and premium after-dinner serves.
What Makes La Serpiente Emplumada Añejo Special?
This Añejo is crafted from 100% tequilana Blue Weber agave and follows the same careful production philosophy as the rest of the range. The brand's technical sheet notes that juice from agaves cooked in autoclaves is blended with juice from agaves cooked in stone ovens. The agaves are then slowly fermented and the tequila is double-distilled in stainless steel pot stills.
Where this expression changes character is in the ageing. La Serpiente Emplumada Añejo is aged for at least 13 months in American white oak barrels, giving it a golden amber colour and a layered profile of fruit, spice, caramel and soft oak.
Tasting Notes
Nose
A fragrant mix of pepper, honey, Seville orange and cinnamon, followed by raisin bread pudding, salted caramel and a gentle toasted sweetness.
Palate
Supple and elegant, with spices, candied fruits and ginger. The body is satiny and soft, balancing dry oak tones with a rounded, fruit-driven character.
Finish
Graceful and warming, with baked banana, roasted fruit, caramel and spice lingering gently after each sip.
Colour
Golden amber, with a warm glow in the bottle and a polished look that suits the aged tequila style.
Awards and Recognition
La Serpiente Emplumada Añejo has a strong award-winning story. It was recognised by the World Tequila Awards in 2017, where the judging note praised its rich agave flavour and light spice from the wood. This makes it an excellent choice for customers looking for a lesser-known Mexican tequila with genuine competition credentials.
How To Enjoy La Serpiente Emplumada Añejo
- Sip neat at room temperature to appreciate the oak-aged complexity.
