A 5 year aged Extra Añejo this tequila has been showing up in Total Wine stores in my area (WA state). A nice golden amber this XA presents barrel spice and wood on the nose and a very bourbon forward, Jack Daniels?, taste that has little hint of sweetness. The color and taste indicate an honest product, with no manipulation by additive/s. The extended aging also has killed almost any agave in the taste and the rating reflects that lack. Still for the price AND the 5 year age it is worth a shot.
