Legend in every sense — Herradura Legend Añejo is crafted from the finest 100% Blue Weber agave, naturally fermented, distilled, and matured for 14 months in new, heavily charred, deeply grooved barrels (Barril Acanalado). The grooved interior surface dramatically increases the tequila’s contact with the oak, accelerating the development of extraordinary richness, color, and complexity.
ABV: 40% | Size: 750ml
The result is an añejo of remarkable depth — incredibly rich in color with a luxurious, velvety smooth taste that pushes the boundaries of what aged tequila can be.

FAQs
What is Barril Acanalado?
“Barril Acanalado” means grooved barrel in Spanish — the deeply grooved interior surface exposes the tequila to significantly more oak than a standard barrel, intensifying color, richness, and complexity during the 14-month maturation.
What makes Herradura Legend different from standard Herradura Añejo?
Legend uses new, heavily charred grooved barrels rather than standard used barrels — delivering a bolder, richer, and more deeply oaked character that sets it apart as Herradura’s most premium añejo expression.
How should I drink it?
Neat or over a single large ice cube — the velvety richness and deep oak character make Herradura Legend a true sipping tequila best enjoyed slowly.
