Agave, agave, agave. On the nose, in the mouth and on the finish. Not sure it is worth the price premium over the regular El Mayor blanco but it sure is tasty. Some nice viscosity on entry is followed by roast caramelized agave and just a hint of white pepper with some mild alcohol numbing on the tip of the tongue.
Butterscotch, caramel upfront. Light to medium body, deep amber color. Light pepper, some agave peeking through and finishes with vanilla and oak. Pleasant heat, some nice mouth feels. Overall a very pleasant, pretty simple Extra Añejo. Worth its weight in value and an enjoyable pour.
Lou is pleasantly surprised with El Mayor Añejo, especially for the price. See his video review.
Mexico’s Consejo Regulador del Tequila (CRT), or the Tequila Regulatory Council, has won the right to register ‘Tequila’ as a certification mark in the US following a legal battle with drinks group Luxco.
NOSE- Spice, butterscotch, light caramel,oak, raisen fruit presence. TASTE- Sweet, fruit raisen, seems somewhat natural, and some alcohol.
