Grand Mayan Extra Aged Tequila 750mL

Grand Mayan Extra Aged Tequila

Extra Añejo Tequila | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750mL | 100% Blue Agave | Aged 3–5 Years | Ex-Bourbon & Ex-Cognac Barrels

Process & Profile

Grand Mayan Extra Aged Tequila is a premium extra añejo tequila crafted from blue agave and aged for a minimum of three years, with older components resting up to five years. This extended maturation gives the tequila a rich, barrel-forward profile with deep sweetness, smooth texture, and a long layered finish.

The agave is slowly cooked in traditional stone and brick ovens, slowly fermented, and then distilled in copper-lined stills. After distillation, the tequila is rested in ex-bourbon and ex-Cognac barrels, adding depth, sweet oak, vanilla, caramel, chocolate, nuts, and warm spice. Each batch is blended for smoothness and balance, creating a sipping tequila that feels closer to a fine aged spirit than a standard blanco or reposado.

Grand Mayan is also known for its hand-painted Talavera-style ceramic decanter, crafted and decorated by Mexican artisans. The presentation gives the bottle strong gift and display appeal, while the tequila inside offers a rich extra aged profile suited for slow sipping, after-dinner pours, and special occasions.

How to Enjoy

Grand Mayan Extra Aged Tequila is best enjoyed neat in a tequila glass, snifter, or fine spirits glass so its oak, caramel, vanilla, cooked agave, nuts, chocolate, and butterscotch notes can open gradually. Let it rest briefly before sipping to allow the barrel-aged richness and sweetness to develop.

A large ice cube can soften the oak and bring forward more caramel, vanilla, and chocolate. This tequila can also be used in elevated cocktails such as a tequila Old Fashioned, Oaxacan Old Fashioned, or Tequila Sour, but its age and bottle presentation make it especially strong as a slow-sipping extra añejo. It pairs well with dark chocolate, flan, crème brûlée, roasted nuts, caramel desserts, cigars, and after-dinner occasions.
