TEQUILA WE MAKE

EXTRA AÑEJO
An Extra Añejo tequila is one that is aged for a minimum of three years.
This is what gives the tequila such a complex and sophisticated flavor. The agave is cooked in a steam-powered traditional stone oven, with a blend of natural spring, deep-well and rainwater.
Our Extra Añejo is aged for three and a half years in used American white oak bourbon casks, which gives it a soft and light oakiness. Made with rain, spring and deep well water, it has just the right balance of minerality.

REPOSADO
The newest member of the Volans Family is our Reposado Tequila. It is ‘rested’ in used American white oak bourbon barrels for under one year. This imparts complexity, aromas, & flavors.
AROMAS: Fruity & earthy aromas along with oak, vanilla, cinnamon, clove, & minerals.
FLAVORS: A rich and buttery mouthfeel with flavors of agave, minerals, subtle oak, caramel, and a sweet & peppered finish.

BLANCO
The blanco version of tequila is the product that is obtained after distillation. It contains 40% alcohol content and is unaged.
Our Blanco is a classic. It’s an easy-to-drink agave-forward spirit with light hints of vanilla and citrus. Our blanco tequila has also been oxygenated, which helps remove some unwanted chemicals and compounds, accentuating the sweetness of the natural agave. Made with rain, spring and deep well water, it has just the right balance of minerality. Plus, there’s a bit of a black pepper finish for an added kick.
