G4 Anejo

A lightly aged, delicate añejo tequila, from the multi-award-winning team at G4 Tequila. It’s the same classic G4 flavour profile; a natural sweetness from the agave, minerality and ‘no additives’. Agave and vanilla are to the fore and oak at the back.

What Makes G4 Añejo Tequila Special?

An añejo tequila with all the sweetness of agave distilled for 18 months, but without too much oak seeping in. It is about the level of oak you might expect in a reposado. G4’s practice of reusing oak barrels means less oak taste in the tequila and more room for the sweet agave and vanilla notes.

G4 Añejo Appearance

Look for the embossed agave plant and tahona on the back of the bottle. The giant stone tahona is a traditional tool for crushing the pinas of the agave plant. They have largely fallen out of use, but G4 Tequila retains their original tahona as a monument at their El Pandillo distillery. It is a nod to their legacy and tradition.

G4 Añejo Tasting Notes

Subtle, delicate flavours and natural sweetness with no need for additives.

Nose

A strong sweetness with citrus, brown sugar and agave to the fore.

Taste

Sweet agave flavour with gentle light oak and vanilla. Also notes of cherry and pepper.

Aftertaste

A long finish with the same taste notes as above.

Where Does G4 Tequila Añejo Come From?

G4 Tequila is made on a mountain. The Jalisco highlands, where it is distilled, is a few thousand feet higher than Britain’s tallest peak (Ben Nevis 4,413ft). Mexico's biggest peak is Pico de Orizaba at a whopping 18,491ft. So, you can see why they just call it the highlands in Jalisco.

G4 Tequila – The Maker of G4 Añejo

G4 Tequila always seeks new ways to make their product better. They built a giant rolling pin with bumps on it to better squeeze the juice out of the pinas. They mix local rainwater with mountain spring water in the distillation. They plant citrus and cherry trees among the agave plants to attract pollinators and improve biodiversity. All this incremental innovation goes to create an exceptional range of tequilas.

What Is the G4 Añejo Volume/Size?

750ml

What Is the Alcohol Percentage and Proof of G4 Añejo?

40% ABV / 80 Proof.

How to Enjoy G4 Añejo

The full flavours of anejo tequilas are often used in marinades in the US. There are several recipes online, but the staples of the marinade are a judicious mix of añejo tequila, fresh lime juice, olive oil, brown sugar and herbs (cilantro/parsley), plus chilli if you choose. One of the most popular recipes is for prawn marinade. Marinade your prawns for a few hours then cook.

G4 Añejo Cocktail Recipe

Añejo tequilas help make a rich traditional margarita, but can also stand up to a little extra spice. This is where the Ginger Margarita comes in. Mix the classic margarita ingredients of tequila and lime juice, forego the Cointreau and add homemade ginger syrup. The syrup is made from sugar, water and raw ginger – videos on how to make this easily can be found online. Only add the syrup once it has chilled. Mix the tequila, lime juice, syrup, and ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake and then serve with a lime wheel and salt on the rim.
