A wonderful Añejo built on the rock-solid Tequila foundation that will put Austin on the Tequila map.
Scott Willis founded Tequila 512 in 2012 as a side hustle while working as a rep for a learning software company. Inspired by Tito’s Vodka, he traveled back and forth from his home in Austin, Texas, to Jalisco in search of the perfect daily sipping Tequila — one that working folks could afford and enjoy. On one of those trips he found Luis Trejo — master distiller at Distillerie La Cofradia. And then he twisted the standard Tequila process by adding a third distillation. Magic ensued, and things are going very well. Scott now has a full team of Tequila-loving folks working full time to create and market their innovative agave Spirit.
What do you do when you have made a Double Gold Medal winning Blanco and then built a Reposado on that foundation? The answer is clear. You make an Añejo.
Like the rest of the lineup, 512 Tequila Añejo is built on the foundation of their pure, 100% pure Weber blue agave Spirit. And they only use volcanic spring water, a slow 24-hour filtration, and special oxidation process to ensure the smoothness. Finally, this Añejo takes is aged in ex-Bourbon casks for a minimum of twelve months. Muy bueno!
Smartass Corner:
“512” is the area code of Austin, Texas, where Tequila 512 is based.
Appearance / Color
Harvest Gold
Nose / Aroma / Smell
The aroma opens with agave succulents and white pepper before yielding vanilla, grapefruit, and a hint of basil and mint.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
The palate is a bit oily and slick with notes of brown butter, grilled herbs, warm toasted oak, and a dash of Aleppo pepper over mixed fruits from lemon zest to grapefruit and more.
Finish
The finish is long but nor at all harsh with warming peppered cilantro tones.
