Sauza 150th Anniversary Extra Anejo Tequila

From a century and a half of tequila-making heritage to a meticulous aging process that draws out extraordinary depth and complexity, the Sauza 1873 150th Anniversary Extra Añejo is a tribute to tradition and a limited-edition expression that belongs in every serious collection.

Casa Sauza’s story began in 1873 when Don Cenobio Sauza founded the distillery in what was then known as Antigua Cruz, today called La Perseverancia, a location that continues to stand as a living monument to the brand’s enduring legacy. Through Mexico’s most turbulent chapters, including the upheaval of the 1910 Revolution, the Sauza family found a way to not only survive but thrive, turning adversity into opportunity and cementing tequila’s place on the world stage.

One hundred and fifty years later, that pioneering spirit lives on in every bottle. For a century and a half, the Sauza name has been synonymous with quality and innovation, and this anniversary release stands as the ultimate expression of that commitment, crafted for those who appreciate both history and the art of exceptional sipping tequila.

This release is a blend of extra-aged tequilas, rested anywhere from four to ten years in American white oak barrels, resulting in a spirit of remarkable smoothness and layered character. The extended time in oak imparts a subtle toastiness alongside the natural richness of roasted agave, pulling together a flavor profile that is both complex and deeply refined.
