1800 Milenio Extra Anejo Tequila 750mL
Overview
1800 Milenio is the pinnacle of the 1800 range — an extra añejo tequila aged for a minimum of three years in French Limousin oak barrels, and presented in one of the most distinctive bottles in the category. This is a tequila that demands to be sipped slowly, with the kind of depth and complexity that rewards patience and attention.
Where the Silver and Reposado are built for versatility, Milenio is built for occasion. The extended time in premium French oak has produced a spirit with genuine gravitas: dark fruit, chocolate, leather, and a long, warming finish that lingers well after the glass is empty. For anyone who takes their tequila seriously, this is the bottle that makes the argument for extra añejo as a legitimate fine spirits category.
The Distillery
Produced under the Jose Cuervo family portfolio at NOM 1122 in Jalisco's Tequila Valley, 1800 Milenio represents decades of accumulated knowledge applied to a long-aged, ultra-premium expression. The use of French Limousin oak — the same cask type associated with fine Cognac and Armagnac — is a deliberate statement about the level of craft and ambition behind this release.
The bottle itself, designed by artist Daniel Libeskind, is considered a collector's piece in its own right. It's a product that takes both the liquid and the presentation seriously, and delivers on both fronts.
Why We Recommend It
At Bourbon Brothers, we recommend 1800 Milenio for customers who want:
- A world-class sipping tequila with serious complexity
- An extra añejo that holds its own against premium whisky and cognac
- A standout gift — exceptional liquid in a genuinely beautiful bottle
- The definitive top shelf expression from one of tequila's most established houses
This is not an everyday bottle. It's the one you open for a reason.
Production & Craftsmanship
| Agave | 100% Blue Weber Agave |
| Cooking | Combination of traditional and modern methods |
| Extraction | Roller mill |
| Fermentation | Controlled fermentation |
| Distillation | Double distilled |
| Still Type | Combination of copper pot and column stills |
| Additives | Produced to commercial standards |
| Aging | Minimum 3 years in French Limousin oak barrels |
Three years in French Limousin oak is a significant commitment. The tight grain of Limousin oak imparts flavour slowly and precisely — building dark fruit, chocolate, and spice without the heavy vanilla dominance you'd get from American oak. The agave character doesn't disappear; it integrates, becoming the backbone that holds everything else together.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Rich vanilla, dark chocolate, dried fig and raisin, toasted oak, and a whisper of leather and tobacco.
Palate
Full and silky — layers of dark fruit, chocolate, baking spice, and caramel over a deep cooked agave base. Exceptionally smooth for its age and complexity.
Finish
Very long, warm, and refined — dark chocolate, gentle oak tannin, and a slow-fading spice that stays with you. One of the cleaner, more elegant finishes in the extra añejo category.
What Makes This Tequila Special
How to Enjoy
Neat, at room temperature, in a quality snifter or Glencairn glass. Give it a few minutes after pouring — the complexity unfolds gradually as it opens up. A single small ice cube is acceptable if you prefer a slightly cooler serve, but avoid diluting it further. This is not a cocktail tequila; it's a contemplative pour that deserves to be experienced on its own terms.
