Atanasio Añejo Tequila is a traditionally made, additive-free añejo tequila from Jalisco, Mexico, crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave and aged 13 months in medium-char ex-bourbon barrels. It is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) and is one of the richest, most generous sipping tequilas in its class.

The Story of Atanasio Añejo

Atanasio is produced by the Landeros family in El Medineño, Jalisco, at distillery NOM 1599, under Maestro Tequilero René Carranza. The family takes a slow, hands-on approach: agave is cooked for more than 24 hours, crushed in a small roller mill, and left to ferment naturally with wild, ambient yeast for 6 to 8 days in open-air vats before being distilled twice in pot stills. The result has been independently verified additive-free by Tequila Matchmaker. Many añejos rest far longer, but Atanasio’s 13 months in oak builds remarkable depth without hiding the cooked-agave character underneath.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Melted butter, black peppercorn, roasted yams and caramelized carrots, layered with cinnamon, vanilla bean and allspice
• Palate: Rich and luxurious, with stewed cherries, blackberries and a buttery warmth
• Finish: Warm baking spice and a faint note of polished new wood

How to Enjoy Atanasio Añejo Tequila

Sip it neat in a tulip glass or over a single large ice cube to let the butter and spice open up. It also makes an excellent añejo Old Fashioned: a dash of agave syrup and orange bitters lets the barrel notes shine.
