Duke Founder's Reserve 3 Year Extra Añejo Tequila

This Limited Edition was created to commemorate and honor John Wayne's love for Mexico, his connection to the land and his pursuit of the perfect tequila.

This Extra Añejo Tequila is a blend between three and five-year-old tequilas, creating a darker hue. You not only taste deep oak flavors, but also the French oak wine barrels bring out a brilliant cherry.

The tequila is produced from hand-selected pinas grown on single estates at a distillery founded in 1885 in Jalisco. Duke Grand Cru Tequila is distilled by hand, the old-fashioned way, in small copper pot stills from the purest agave grown in the rich, red soils in the highlands of Los Altos. It is carefully aged, then finished in the finest French oak wine barrels from Napa, which have also been graced by Duke Grand Cru Bourbon from Kentucky.
