Tres Barricas Tequila Añejo Single Batch Edition #2 750mL
Tres Barricas Tequila Añejo Single Batch Edition #2
Añejo Tequila | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL | Mexico | Single Batch Edition #2 | 100% Agave | Aged 12 Months
Process & Profile
Tres Barricas Tequila Añejo Single Batch Edition #2 is a limited añejo tequila built around a multi-cask maturation approach that gives it more layered oak influence than a standard single-barrel-aged tequila. The batch is described as a marriage of tequilas matured for 12 months in American white oak ex-Tennessee whiskey barrels and French oak, with product notes for this edition also highlighting French oak ex-Cognac casks and French oak ex-Sherry casks. That combination gives the tequila a profile shaped by cooked agave, oak sweetness, fruit, and a more rounded finish than a younger expression.
What makes Edition #2 especially appealing is the balance between maturity and softness. Rather than pushing too far into heavy wood, it keeps the agave present while layering in caramel, vanilla, dried nuts, citrus, and orchard fruit. For those looking for an añejo tequila with more cask complexity, a small-batch tequila with French oak influence, or a bottle that bridges traditional agave character with richer barrel-driven notes, this is a distinctive release in the Tres Barricas lineup.

How to Enjoy
Tres Barricas Tequila Añejo Single Batch Edition #2 is best enjoyed neat in a tequila sipping glass so the agave, oak, and fruit notes can fully open.

It also works well as a slower after-dinner pour for those looking for an añejo that leans smooth and layered rather than sharp or overly sweet.
