This Bandido's done time!
Sourced from the finest ingredients, including 100% Blue Weber Agave, the El Bandido Yankee Añejo is all-natural, with zero color or flavor additives. Notice its nearly translucent caramel color. Produced by third-generation distillers Juan Eduardo Nuñez and Karina Rojo at the Jalisco-based El Viejito Distillery, it spends over 12 months aging in American Oak bourbon barrels, stripped and recharred to enhance flavors. This new expression presents a butterscotch profile with notes of toasted vanilla, pepper, and cinnamon, best served neat.
