A classic cocktail, reimagined with Mexican character

The Old Fashioned is a symbol of timeless elegance. When crafted with Tres Generaciones® Añejo Tequila, it takes on a deeper, warmer, and more complex character—one that feels ideally suited for winter evenings and holiday celebrations.

This cocktail is meant to be enjoyed slowly. Its layers of oak, vanilla, cooked agave, and gentle spice unfold with every sip, making it ideal for after-dinner moments, long conversations, and relaxed holiday nights. The addition of seasonal spices and citrus enhances the tequila’s richness without overpowering it.
