Tequila brand Jose Cuervo has expanded its Tradicional portfolio with the addition of an añejo expression that was finished in Irish single malt whiskey barrels.
Aroma and flavor both are predominantly oak, caramel and alcohol. Whiskey follows on the flavor. Not complex and the oak, caramel and whiskey seem forced and unnatural. Medium finish is highlighted with young agave bitterness.
