Introducing Código 1530's 15-Year Extra Añejo
On July 9, 2026, Código 1530 introduced a remarkable addition to the world of ultra-premium tequila—the
15-Year Extra Añejo. This extraordinary tequila, limited to only
350 bottles worldwide, raises the standards of craftsmanship and aims to revolutionize perceptions of agave spirits. Crafted with precision and time, this expression stands as a testament to both tradition and innovation in tequila production.
The Aging Process
The 15-Year Extra Añejo undergoes an impressive maturation process, spending
15 years in French white oak Cabernet barrels. Following this, it is transferred to French Cognac casks for an additional
six months, resulting in a complex and nuanced flavor profile. This double-barrel aging not only enhances the structure and elegance of the tequila but also preserves the distinct characteristics that Código 1530 is known for.
Renowned for its commitment to traditional methods, Código 1530 utilizes naturally filtered water and fully matured blue agave sourced from the rich landscapes of Jalisco. The meticulous craftsmanship reflects a deep respect for time-honored techniques inspired by ancestors dedicated to cultivating premium agave. Each sip embodies the essence of patience and passion, transformed into a liquid ideal for special moments and slow savoring.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, the tequila presents a stunning
red-amber hue that mesmerizes the senses. The aroma is an inviting blend, featuring layers of toasted oak, buttery maple, rich vanilla, and dark cacao, accented by a subtle mineral note. On the palate, it offers a creamy and robust texture, balanced with hints of dry plum, soft cinnamon, and polished oak. The finish is long and velvety, leaving behind lingering traces of tobacco that add both sophistication and warmth.
Statement from the Co-founder
Federico Vaughn, the co-founder of Código 1530, expressed his pride in this unique release, stating, "Our
15-Year Extra Añejo is not just a tequila; it's a symbol of patience. It has spent fifteen years developing its character in Cabernet French Oak and Cognac casks, patiently waiting for the moment it was truly ready. This is a tequila crafted for connoisseurs, meant to be savored and remembered."
