El Trago is made from 100% Agave Espadin and produced as traditional tequila. We utilize fully mature Espadin Agave in our process. ThIS is the mother plant to Blue Weber. Compared to other species, Espadin is medium in size, with sword-like leaves that extend outward from the agave's piña. This plant has a shorter growing period of only 6-8 years and yields more.
The process for Extra Anejo and 1873 is the same when it comes to cooking, extracting, fermenting, and distilling. After harvesting, each Piña is taken back to our distillery and cooked for 18 hours in Autoclave Ovens. Then fermentation begins for 60 hours in our open fermentation tanks. After this process it is time for Distillation, which is done in our double distillation stainless steel tanks.
There is double distillation done in stainless steel tanks. The end result is the delicious El Trago 1873. Smooth with a sweet citrus taste and an aroma of cooked agave. While Extra Anejo moves on to barrel aging.
EXTRA ANEJO
Our Extra Anejo Tequila is then aged for 40 months in our Used American White Oak Barrels. This produces that dark amber color, and a flavor that is heavy with oak, sweet agave, maple, and caramel.
