Volans Anejo Tequila

A refined and expressive añejo tequila that marries rich, aged agave character with sophisticated oak influence and nuanced spice. Volans Añejo offers depth and balance rarely found in its category — smooth and layered enough for contemplative sipping, yet versatile enough for premium cocktails.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Crafted in Jalisco, Mexico, Volans Añejo Tequila begins with 100% mature blue Weber agave, harvested by hand at peak ripeness. Each piña is slow-cooked to convert natural sugars, then fermented and double-distilled to preserve agave purity and aromatic clarity.

The spirit is then aged in oak barrels — often previously seasoned with other fine spirits — which imparts complexity without overpowering the core agave profile. This extended maturation softens the raw edges of young distillate and allows layers of vanilla, caramel, and spice to harmonize with the natural sweetness and herbal tones of the agave.

The result is an añejo that strikes a compelling balance: rich and structured yet beautifully poised, with enough oak influence to elevate the profile without diminishing the signature agave heart.
