Extra Añejo tequila, aged for a minimum of three years, has risen in popularity as drinkers seek out deeper, more complex flavors. This category is known for its rich, oak-infused profiles and smooth finishes, often comparable to fine cognacs or aged whiskies. At the 2024 Singapore World Spirits Competition, Cierto Tequila Private Collection Extra Añejo claimed the title of Best Extra Añejo Tequila, further establishing the brand as a beacon of excellence in the ultra-premium tequila category.

On the nose, you’ll find roasted nuts and dried fruits, underscored by hints of creamy vanilla and honey. The palate is layered, starting with notes of caramelized agave and toffee that give way to spices like cinnamon and clove, all enhanced by the subtle smokiness imparted by the oak. The finish is long with lingering touches of dark chocolate and oak. 

The title of Best Extra Añejo Tequila is a fitting accolade for Cierto Private Collection Extra Añejo, a tequila that perfectly embodies the art of long-term aging. With its impeccable balance of sweetness, spice, and wood, this spirit offers a drinking experience as refined as any premium aged liquor. For those seeking the ultimate expression of tequila craftsmanship, Cierto’s Private Collection Extra Añejo is truly in a league of its own.
