Tequila Cayéya Single Barrel Añejo presents itself with unwavering authenticity in its cask strength bottling. The distillate embarks on a transformation, maturing initially within a singular American White Oak cask for a span of 15.5 months. This journey concludes with a refined touch as it rests within a sole French Oak cask for an additional 2.5 months, embodying the essence of a true single barrel, single finish Tequila – an unblended masterpiece.

Each bottle bears the distinction of a designated barrel and batch number, showcasing the ABV, and the signature of our esteemed Female Master Destiladora, Zandra Gomez. The culmination of these efforts spans a total aging period of 18 months, each moment a testament to the meticulous dedication invested in crafting this prized spirit.

It's important to note that we release this extraordinary tequila periodically, a testament to the intricate production process required to bestow this coveted spirit upon you.

The oak imparts a subtle smokiness, intermingling with notes of dried fruits and hints of leather, creating a truly captivating and multidimensional tasting journey.
