This blend of four barrels—each aged for 28 months—was distilled from organic agave grown on the El Llano Grande estate with the sole intent to age. These parcels were planted in April 2016 in potassium-rich soil designed to intensify an agave sweetness that is fully revealed through the influence of new American and French oak. Each batch of Santanera Selección de Bosques is individually numbered and labeled with unique production details, including age statements for both the agave and the barreling. Each label also links to an exclusive site detailing every aspect of the agriculture, process, and certifications behind every element of the batch.
