As an extra añejo it rests in oak for more than three years, and it carries the CRT additive-free designation, meaning no glycerin, sugar, or oak extract is used to fake age or sweetness — every note in the glass comes from agave and barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the nose, wet cedar, candied plum, eucalyptus, fresh vanilla bean, and a trace of dry clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, rich cooked agave and roasted sweet potato meet pineapple, cherry tobacco, and pomegranate seed, laced with cracked white pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe finish is dry and earthy, with a gentle smoky char from the wood-fired stills lingering last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates this from a typical extra añejo is what's missing: the additive-free bottling and wood-fired distillation leave a savory, mineral, tobacco-and-clay character intact where a sweetened tequila would flatten it into caramel.
