🥃🥃 Tasting Notes
Appearance:
Rich golden amber with warm copper and polished mahogany highlights reflecting its extended French oak maturation.
Aroma:
An intriguing opening of briny agave character develops with time into pepper, sweet baked pastry, and warm oak. Additional aromas of roasted agave and subtle fruit emerge as the tequila rests in the glass.
Palate:
Rich, sweet, and full-bodied:
Roasted pepper provides an earthy, savory opening
Pineapple introduces a bright tropical-fruit sweetness
Chocolate develops prominently through the mid-palate
Orange adds a fresh citrus dimension
Sweet cookie and pastry notes create a dessert-like richness
Mature French oak provides substantial structure and depth
Roasted agave remains present underneath the extended barrel influence
Peppery spice balances the sweeter chocolate and fruit flavors
More than two years of maturation creates a rich, rounded mouthfeel with pronounced wood character
Finish:
Long, sweet, and persistent, with lingering chocolate, caramelized sweetness, roasted agave, French oak, and gentle spice. Its combination of extended aging, 100% Blue Agave, and striking collectible presentation makes Skelly Añejo Tequila an excellent choice for tequila enthusiasts seeking both distinctive flavor and unmistakable Mexican-inspired artistry.
Description
Skelly Añejo Tequila (750mL) — 100% Blue Agave Añejo Aged Over Two Years in French Oak
Celebrate Mexican artistry and mature tequila craftsmanship with Skelly Añejo Tequila, a distinctive 100% Blue Agave tequila recognized as much for its rich, oak-aged character as for its unforgettable skeleton-inspired presentation. Part of the Skelly Collection, the bottle draws inspiration from Día de los Muertos and the Mexican calavera tradition, transforming a premium sipping tequila into an eye-catching collectible.
Skelly Añejo is matured for more than two years in fine French oak barrels, giving the tequila considerably greater wood influence and complexity than a typical younger Añejo. The extended aging develops layers of roasted agave, chocolate, orange, sweet pastry, pepper, and rich oak while maintaining a smooth, naturally sweet character. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 Proof), this is a full-bodied tequila designed for sipping and an exceptional choice for collectors seeking a bottle that combines Mexican-inspired artistry with mature Añejo character.
