For a non tequila drinker I seem to review my fair share. I suppose this is the case due to my lovely wife enjoying the spirit more than I do. This one was recommended at my local shop and it certainly gets style points for the bottle. I am hopeful my shopkeeper hasn't led me to the sucker club based on fancy packaging...
Nose is fairly nice for a tequila. Sweet agave notes, but not overpowering to the point of off putting for me.
First sip is an interesting blend. The base agave is there and I get some vanilla hints. There is almost a milk chocolate note on the finish which I can't say I remember in any other tequilas in our growing collection. This isn't what I would call a dessert tequila (Adictivo or Padre), but it is really quite mellow overall with just a touch of pepper on the finish.
Final verdict on this one is that I actually quite like it. For the price point I would pick this any day over the mainstream brands. Thank my wife for my expanded section of tequila reviews and for me being able to definitely recommend this one as a pick up if you see it and enjoy the barrel softening the Anejos bring to the bar shelf.
