Very expensive, but one of the best XAs out there. Awesome nose. Flavor of stewed fruits, chocolate and agave. Huge finish with just the right balance of oak.

Sweet agave, whiskey, honey, caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, smoke, leather, citrus and fruit. This is the extra anejo others are judged against, and for a price range of $140 to 160, this is well worth it.

This doesn’t require a lot of words, it’s on point and should be respected as an elite product. Still some agave left in there unbelievably.

Dark rich color. Ripe fruit, dried fruit, peach notes, dark spices and oak. A lot of aromas going on. A definite olive note mingling with the butterscotch undercurrent. Taste: Buttery, pitted fruit, pepper with some bite. Finish lasts for ages. It is an assertive tequila.

Probably my favorite XA and I would rate it higher if it wasn’t so expensive.

Still my favorite XA. At $140 a liter it's a bargain. The aroma of layer after layer of dried fruit and oak make it delicious in the aroma and during the taste. The finish lasts and lasts with a soft bite to remind you that it's still tequila.

Simply one of the best tequilas ever produced.

This Tapatio came to the US by special order from England, after a small group of us had found out that this was basically Excelencia, although it came in an añejo bottle. This tequila has a great nose, with notes of citrus and cooked brown sugar. Sweet and peppery, the taste is big and complex! My favorite part is the finish as it goes on for days and ends with a really nice earth tone that only an agave spirit can produce!

Nothing stood out to me in this tequila...weak caramel on the nose, strong alcohol finish...

Am all time favorite. Very pronounced smoky/bourbon flavors. Fantastic.

I originally rated this a few points lower but after a second tasting, I think it’s opened up a bit. Lots more flavor and a much bigger burst of cooked agave on the second go around. Carlos Camarena tequila always have agave at the fore front and this is no different. Amazing agave flavor from start to finish. Nice mellowing from the barrel. Butterscotch, vanilla are present. Some bright citrus on the back end. This is an outstanding tequila. Not overpowered by the barrel and absolutely true to the agave. I don’t usually go for anejo’s and extra anejo’s but this has become one of my favorite tequila.

Amazing nose. So many different scents, agave, oak, cinnamon, and vanilla, simply spectacular. Then there’s the taste. Agave, vanilla, caramel, cinnamon, heaven, wait...did I say heaven? The best way I can describe it is in a rhetorical question, why did I drink solely scotch for the last 12+ years? This stuff made me, a scotch only drinker a full tequila convert, to the point I can’t see myself ever going back. If you haven’t tried it yet, do yourself a favor and buy a bottle. Wait...no, buy a case. You’ll thank me later.

Aroma - heavy butterscotch, maybe light cherry Flavor - caramel coating Finish - light heat, slight pepper. Wish it left a little more behind afterwards Overall, this is excellent.

For whatever reason it took me a bit to calibrate to this one. Smells like butterscotch, caramel, spice, and Christmas Eve. Perfect little numb after each sip. Extra points that Tapatio puts it all in a 1L bottle. Yes I would drink again. Yes I would recommend to a friend.

Amazing tequila.

One of my favorites for sure! The finish is exceptional!!

Amazing notes of caramel, vanilla and wood. Smooth and easy to enjoy. Complex with lots of layers, still has amazing agave flavor.

Sweet agave,age spice rum hint,finish agave,pepper

Strong bourbon aroma and taste. Heavy silky body. Burnt caramel

A full bodied XA, dried candied fruit, with nutty characteristics, the undertones are sweet yet subtle. Complex flavors of caramel, vanilla and wood. Liter bottle makes it a good value.

Was looking for a while for this bottle as we don’t have it here. Great gentle smell with oak, strong taste of oak and great finish. Full of flavor once exhaling. I would definitely recommend this tequila to any whiskey/rum lover and anyone that fancy’s an oaky tequila. As the bottle is 1L would make this a high level medium priced bottle.

Awesome and smooth tequila!

Love the flavor, taste of quality, and finish.

With over 70 bottles in my collection, I consider this one of the finest. The best Extra Anejo I have experienced to date...if there are better, can't wait to find them.

Gorgeous color. Wood/oak, pine needles, agave, friut and forest floor (in that order) on the nose. The palate has dark chocolate, cherries, plums and peaches, dried fruits and nuts. There is a nice, long finish that gives off some heat in the way back of the throat. Carlos made an outstanding XA with this one. It will set you back some pesos, but the quality is commensurate with the price.
