Jose Cuervo Reserva De La Familia Extra Anejo Tequila

Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Extra Anejo is the prestige expression from the world’s oldest tequila producer — 100% Blue Weber agave, aged in a combination of new and used American and French oak barrels, and presented in a hand-painted wooden box designed by a different Mexican artist each year. One of the most collectible annual extra anejo releases in the category.

Cuervo’s family heritage dates to 1758, when Jose Antonio de Cuervo was granted the first official land to grow agave by the Spanish Crown. The Reserva de la Familia program was created to showcase what the family’s distillery can produce at its highest level — a deliberate contrast to the Cuervo Especial line that dominates the mainstream market. The annual artist box makes each vintage year a distinct collector piece.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Reserva de la Familia different from standard Jose Cuervo?

The Reserva de la Familia is Jose Cuervo’s ultra-premium expression — 100% Blue Weber agave, multi-barrel extra anejo aging, and annual artist packaging — bearing almost no relationship to Cuervo Especial (the standard silver mixer). It is produced to demonstrate what the oldest tequila family can achieve at the top of the quality spectrum, not as a volume product.

Why does the box design change every year?

Each vintage year of the Reserva de la Familia features a wooden presentation box designed by a different Mexican artist, making every year’s release a distinct collector piece. The annual artist collaboration is a heritage tribute to Mexican artistic tradition and makes building a collection of consecutive vintages particularly rewarding visually.
