Detailed Description
Made from agaves grown at over 5000’ and distilled in stainless pot stills, the añejo is aged in French oak for a minimum of one year. The distinctive bottle is lapis-colored in a truncated, pyramidal shape. (Note that the name has changed from Lapiz to Lapis over the years.)
Lapis Anejo Tequila Tasting Notes
Nose: There’s a slight woodiness, coupled with roasty agave and modest vanilla on the nose.
Palate: More-developed wood carries over onto the palate where it’s joined by a pleasantly nutty bitterness reminiscent of roasted walnuts. A touch of heat here is mitigated by a pleasant creaminess and sweetened by modest vanilla.
Finish: The finish introduces a suppressed spiciness–just enough to keep it grippy to the end.
