818 Tequila Añejo

818 Añejo is a 100% agave tequila from the La Cofradia distillery, a house with more than fifty years of production that pairs traditional methods with a modern industrial plant. The brand, founded by Kendall Jenner, sits in the accessible, easy drinking camp, and this añejo is notable for being a blend, married with longer aged extra añejo, which accounts for its deeper colour and sweeter turn.
The spirit rests in oak barrels until it takes on a mild, sweet aroma, then shows soft and supple on the palate with a light fruit note and a gentle, sweetish finish. The style is built for comfort rather than intensity, with the wood smoothing the edges. As a mainstream celebrity backed bottling it is widely reported to lean sweet, so it reads polished and mellow rather than rugged.
