  Sierra Milenario Anejo Tequila Mexico 70 cl 41,5%

  Item no.: 22227865479-18755

  The name means "the millennial one", and the bottle is shaped like a small Mayan temple. Sierra Milenario comes from the same family behind the well-known sombrero bottle, only without the sombrero, and with far more time in the barrel.

  Expert Description

  Sierra Milenario Añejo is a Mexican Añejo Tequila made from 100% agave, bottled at 41.5%.

  The tequila is produced at Destilerías Sierra Unidas in Guadalajara, Jalisco, the same family-run distillery that has shipped the iconic sombrero-capped Sierra tequila around the world since 1981. Milenario is the house's more exclusive line: six different expressions, each named after a sign in the Mayan calendar, with a Mayan temple as the distinctive bottle cap. The Añejo expression is made exclusively from 100% blue agave, double distilled in traditional pot stills, before resting for up to 18 months in white oak barrels. The extended ageing gives it a darker colour and a far more complex character than the house's younger expressions.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Caramel and vanilla, spiced with chocolate and oak, broken up by sweet notes of tropical fruit and ripe apricots.

  Palate

  Rich and velvety with caramel and chocolate, grilled tropical fruit and a touch of garden herbs and pepper.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with lingering notes of toasted oak and sweet fruit.

  Sierra Milenario Blanco Tequila Mexico 70 cl 41,5%

  Item no.: 22227865479-18757

  In the Mayan calendar, the snake is a symbol of renewal and sharp clarity. The same could be said of Sierra Milenario Blanco, which leaves the agave completely unfiltered and stripped of everything but its own character.

  Expert Description

  Sierra Milenario Blanco is a Mexican Blanco Tequila made from 100% agave, bottled at 41.5%.

  The tequila is produced at Destilerías Sierra Unidas in Guadalajara, Jalisco, the family-run distillery that has shipped the iconic sombrero-capped Sierra tequila around the world since 1981. The Milenario range consists of six expressions, each named after a sign in the Mayan calendar, and Blanco represents the snake, Chicchan. This expression is made exclusively from 100% blue Weber agave, triple distilled in traditional pot stills for extra purity. The Blanco is bottled shortly after distillation with no barrel ageing, and won a gold medal at the Tequila Masters in 2019.

  Sierra Milenario Extra Anejo Tequila Mexico 70 cl 41,5%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10171

  Only a small share of the tequila distilled in Jalisco is left in barrels long enough to earn the name Extra Añejo. Sierra Milenario is one of them, vintage after vintage rested well beyond the legal minimum, until it turns dark, round and full of spiced sweetness.

  Expert Description

  Sierra Milenario Extra Añejo Mexican Tequila is a 100% agave Extra Añejo Tequila, aged in French Limousin oak barrels and bottled at 41.5%.

  The tequila comes from Destilerías Sierra Unidas in Jalisco, the same family distillery behind Sierra Reposado and Sierra Silver, but here the ambition is different. Milenario is double distilled and aged for up to four years in French Limousin oak barrels, well beyond the three-year legal minimum required for the Extra Añejo category. The volcanic soil of the Jalisco highlands gives the agave a fresh, fruity character that carries through the long ageing process.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Spiced oak, roasted agave and ripe fruit, with a touch of dark chocolate.

  Palate

  Round and complex, with caramel, vanilla and a deep, roasted agave character.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with a final note of tropical fruit and spice.

  Did You Know?

  Did you know that the Extra Añejo category was only introduced in 2006, and requires a minimum of three years' barrel ageing, making it the rarest of the official tequila categories? Sierra Milenario goes even further, resting for up to four years.

  Sierra Silver Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

  Item no.: 22227865479-10170

  "Uno, dos, tres" is the ritual for drinking a Sierra Silver: salt on the back of the hand, a quick shot, and finally a slice of lemon. That has been the sound of parties worldwide ever since the distillery in Guadalajara sent out its first bottle in 1981.

  Expert Description

  Sierra Silver Mexican Tequila is a Blanco Tequila, also known internationally as Silver, bottled at 38%.

  The tequila comes from Destilerías Sierra Unidas in Guadalajara, Jalisco, where the Sierra family, now in its fourth generation, distils from blue Weber agave grown in the mineral-rich soil around the city. After two distillations in traditional pot stills, the tequila rests for a couple of weeks in steel tanks to settle before being bottled crystal clear, with no barrel ageing at all. The agave content sits at around 85%, well above the legal minimum of 51%.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Fruity and fresh with a hint of chilli.

  Palate

  Nuances of pepper, green apple and ripe pineapple in a full, aromatic body.

  Finish

  Clean and light, with a final peppery tingle on the tongue.
