añejo

Borrowed from Spanish añejo.

añejo (plural añejos)

1. A tequila or rum which has been aged.

• IPA^(key): /aˈɲexo/ [aˈɲe.xo]
• Rhymes: -exo
• Syllabification: a‧ñe‧jo

Inherited from Vulgar Latin *anniclus, syncopated form of Latin anniculus (“one-year-old”). Cf. also añojo, which derives from a variant form and preserves the meaning more closely.

1. aged (of food, particularly wine, but also cheese or alcoholic spirits such as rum)

   Antonyms: fresco, nuevo

2. (wine) vintage
