Description
GRAND MAYAN ULTRA AGED AÑEJO TEQUILA – 80 PROOF, 750 ML
Available at Wine Barrel Plus
What It Is:
Grand Mayan Ultra Aged Tequila is a luxurious extra‑añejo crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the Central Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. It's double-distilled in copper pot stills, slow-cooked, and aged in a blend of American oak and French ex-cognac barrels for 5+ years.
This tequila is bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV) in a hand-painted Talavera ceramic decanter, making it as much a showpiece as it is a top-shelf spirit.
