Sauza Hornitos Anejo Tequila 750 ml
About this bottle
Hornitos Añejo comes from Sauza, one of the oldest tequila houses in Jalisco, and spends a minimum of 12 months in American oak barrels — enough to shift it from the bright, peppery character of Hornitos Plata into something rounder, with real caramel and vanilla layered over the cooked-agave base. It's 100% blue agave and made in the lowlands around Tequila, Jalisco, using a mix of traditional and modern production. Hornitos sits in the accessible mid-shelf tier rather than the ultra-bracket, which makes this a reasonable way to try an aged, oak-driven tequila without committing to a boutique añejo.
How to drink Hornitos Añejo
Serve it neat or on one rock in a snifter — the oak and caramel are worth tasting straight rather than masking in a mixer. It also holds together well in an Añejo Old Fashioned, swapping tequila in for whiskey.

Questions about this bottle
How should I serve Hornitos Añejo Tequila?
Sip it neat or with a large ice cube in a rocks glass — a year in oak gives it enough body to be enjoyed slowly rather than shot.
What cocktails work well with Hornitos Añejo?
It makes a smoother Tequila Old Fashioned or Añejo Paloma, where the oak notes come through better than they would in a blanco.
How long is Hornitos Añejo Tequila aged?
It's aged a minimum of 12 months in American oak barrels, which is what earns it the añejo designation and gives it its amber color and vanilla-oak notes.
