Tastes

Neat. Lots of legs in the glass. Nose is pleasant. Lots of fruity agave, honey, oak. Taste has the nose notes. Lots of honey/light caramel, nice amount of oak, a little vanilla with black pepper. Some hints of herbs and mulling spices. Finish is saccharine, oak tannins, black pepper, hint of cloves?. Mouthfeel is moderately full and oily Overall smooth and on the sweeter end of balanced. Let this one open up a bit, it got better with air time. Makes a nice after meal sipper.

Neat. Aroma is agave, oak/cedar, vanilla, creme brulee, slight dessert/baking spices such as allspice. Reminiscent of the Holidays. Taste is true to nose: Sweet agave and honey and hints of vanilla and allspice. Very well balanced with fresh cut oak/cedar and a little black pepper. Finish is also perfectly balanced with some residual sweetness and the wood tannins Overall, very delicious and an unbeatable value. Sweet, but balanced and lots of real wood character. Not nearly as sweet as a 1942 or Clase Azul, but it is a little richer than something like El Tesoro. This ones a crowd pleaser that an aficionado can also enjoy, and for about half price. This bottle will always be on my shelf

Neat. Nose is sweet and vanilla with some slight floral, green herbs, minerals, ash/char. Taste is agave sweet with some caramel, blossom honey, vanilla, cardamom, cake batter/cream soda, and green herbs. Any oak is minimal Finish is sweet, vanilla, and grassy/herbal and a touch of barrel spice. Overall, it tastes good, but doesn't taste like real tequila. There does seem to be a fair dose of additives. I prefer this to some $$$ pours such as Clase Azul and even the Don Julio 1942..but there are better pours of more authentic tequila for a little less

Neat. Nose is agave, butterscotch, oak, pineapple, vanilla, musty earth and minerals. Taste starts richly sweet with fruity agave, caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, and a little cocoa. Oak and a little cedar for the wood notes. Some cinnamon, black pepper, and a little mint and alcohol bring it in balance. Finish is fairly long and slightly sweet with a fair bit of oak, cocoa, tame barrel spice/cinnamon and hint of anise A nice example of a smooth and sweet anejo that actually has some character. Newbies and connoisseurs could both enjoy

Neat. Nose is light sweet with roasted agave, white grapes, orange blossoms, slight oak, vanilla. Taste is agave, orange blossom honey, vanilla, touch of black pepper, oak. The finish is fairly short with tart sweetness, vanilla, and faint oak tannin Very smooth and easy to drink. Not the most complex, but it is tasty in a unique way as it is aged a few weeks in white wine barrels. Great drink for the $$

Neat. Nose is dessert like. Caramel, vanilla, slight hints of oak and agave Taste is true to that nose, but intense. Hard diet cream soda. I'd get more descriptive, but if you're looking for that.. this is going to be a pass. It 'tastes' good, it just doesn't taste like tequila Reminds me of Clase Azul Reposado, just a little thinner mouthfeel. So you could save some money if you like that flavor profile..you just don't get a cool bottle...but still it's way too much for the quality and cost that goes into it

Neat. Nose is earth, oak, agave, vanilla, caramel, touch of herbs/mint. Taste is true to nose. Agave sweet, oak, vanilla, caramel, butter, slight tropical fruits and toasted coconut. Finish is moderate with a little oak and pepper

Neat. Nose is oak, earth, leather, herbs, with slight roasted agave, char, and a hint of vanilla. Very lovely and counter to many that are on the sweet/vanilla side. Taste is fairly light and starts with the oak, then mild sweetness from agave, honey/light caramel, anise. Finish is light and clean with some herbal bitterness, very light sweetness and an oily mouthfeel I really like what this tequila brings to my collection. The earthy/herbal/oily combination is unique and is a nice contrast to so many other tequilas. I'll keep a bottle around for the variety, but value is iffy for a regular pour
