The El Tesoro Mundial Collection Añejo: Yamazaki is a groundbreaking cross-cultural collaboration between Mexico’s La Alteña Distillery and Japan’s Yamazaki Distillery. This limited-edition release begins as El Tesoro’s traditional añejo tequila — crafted from 100% estate-grown Blue Weber agave, slow-cooked in stone ovens, double-distilled, and aged in American oak. It is then finished for 12 months in Yamazaki’s sherry and wine casks, previously used to mature Yamazaki 12-Year Single Malt Whisky.
The result is a harmonious blend of Mexican tequila heritage and Japanese oak artistry, yielding a rich, layered spirit that bridges two worlds of craftsmanship through deep wood influence and agave purity.
Tasting Notes:
Color: Deep gold with amber highlights.
Nose: Cooked agave, toasted almond, honey, dried fruit, and subtle tobacco.
Palate: Full-bodied with flavors of sherry sweetness, roasted nuts, chocolate, oak spice, and hints of red berries.
Finish: Long, elegant, and complex — balancing agave warmth with soft notes of oak and clove.
What Makes It Special:
- Finished for 12 months in authentic Yamazaki sherry and wine casks, imparting Japanese whisky depth to Mexican tequila.
- Collaboration between El Tesoro’s master distiller Carlos Camarena and the Yamazaki Distillery in Japan.
- Bottled at 42% ABV (84 proof) to preserve both agave vibrancy and cask richness.
