Añejo Tequila | 1800 Tequila
Overview
1800 GuachiMonton is a luxury añejo tequila with a genuinely unique finishing process — after 18 months aging in American oak, it is finished in orange tequila liqueur casks, making it the first and only añejo tequila in the world to undergo this process. The result is an añejo that carries all the expected warmth and complexity of extended oak aging, elevated by a bright, natural citrus character that sets it apart from anything else in the category.
The name honours Los Guachimontones, the ancient circular stepped pyramids near Teuchitlán in Jalisco — one of the most significant pre-Columbian archaeological sites in western Mexico. That cultural connection extends to the bottle itself: a hand-finished red ceramic vessel with a circular wooden cap, designed to reflect the shape and spirit of those pyramids. This is a bottle that earns its place on the shelf for the liquid and the story behind it.
The Distillery
Produced under the Jose Cuervo family portfolio at NOM 1122 in Jalisco's Tequila Valley, the GuachiMonton is among the most ambitious releases in 1800's history. The agave is sourced from a single estate in the lowlands of the Tequila Valley, grown for six to eight years before harvest — a commitment to raw material quality that underpins the character of the final liquid.
The 40-hour masonry oven cook and orange liqueur cask finish are both deliberate departures from the standard 1800 production approach, reflecting genuine craft investment in what is positioned as the brand's premium heritage expression.
Why We Recommend It
At Bourbon Brothers, we recommend 1800 GuachiMonton for customers who want:
- A one-of-a-kind añejo with a finish found nowhere else in the category
- Rich oak complexity lifted by natural citrus and honey
- A premium gift bottle with exceptional shelf and table presence
- A tequila with a genuine cultural story worth telling
It appeals equally to serious tequila drinkers looking for something new and to gift-buyers who want a bottle that looks and drinks the part.
Production & Craftsmanship
| Agave | 100% Blue Weber Agave, single estate — grown 6–8 years |
| Cooking | 40 hours in traditional masonry ovens |
| Extraction | Roller mill |
| Fermentation | Controlled fermentation |
| Distillation | Double distilled |
| Still Type | Copper pot and column stills |
| Aging | 18 months in American oak barrels |
| Cask Finish | Finished in orange tequila liqueur casks — a world first for añejo tequila |
| Additives | Produced to commercial standards |
The 40-hour masonry oven cook — longer than the standard 1800 process — allows more of the agave's natural sugars and character to develop before fermentation. Combined with the orange liqueur cask finish, it produces a flavour profile that feels both rooted in tradition and genuinely innovative.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Spiced orange, honey, sandalwood, and vanilla cream — the citrus lift is immediate but elegant, not sharp.
Palate
Velvety and smooth — caramel, ripe citrus, vanilla, toasted oak, and subtle dark chocolate, with a whisper of cardamom spice.
Finish
Long and warming — honey, soft oak, and a clean citrus note that lingers pleasantly without ever becoming sweet or cloying.
What Makes This Tequila Special
100% Blue Weber Agave Single estate agave 18 months American oak aging World's first orange liqueur cask finish 40-hour masonry oven cook Hand-finished red ceramic bottle Inspired by Los Guachimontones pyramids
How to Enjoy
Best appreciated neat or over a single large ice cube, where the citrus finish has room to express itself fully. It also works exceptionally well in an Añejo Margarita or a Tequila Old Fashioned, where the orange character integrates naturally with classic cocktail ingredients. If you're pouring for guests unfamiliar with premium añejo, this is an ideal introduction — the citrus makes it immediately approachable without sacrificing depth.
