Aroma: Strong oaky presence (wonder if they used a heavy or full heavy char), sweet notes: vanilla, caramel, molasses, maple syrup. Dried fruits/raisins. Light agave. Flavor: Whiskey, barrel spice, butter (texture), dates (that was first time I detect that fruit flavor on a tequila, really liked that!). Chocolate and nutty notes in the profile. Not a lot of agave, medium finish/feel, bourbon experience that it might be a great starter for whiskey lovers. Great price!
whiskey, barrel spice, stone fruit up front on aroma. agave comes in a bit later. vanilla and sharp citrus follow in behind. whiskey soaked oak, stone fruit with a brightness of citrus and mild heat balance it out on the flavor. dark, overripe cherry develops on a medium+ finish. maybe some mild baking soda comes through late on aftertaste. would not consider it agave forward, but an interesting sipper, especially at a $35-39 price point. again, the plastic/wax seal around synthetic cork is annoying. still a bottle worth having
Deep amber color. A little medicinal upfront on the nose, gives way to dark cherry, candied fruit. Not a lot of agave. Sweet upon entry, cuts a bit thin and transitions to oak, spices and pepper. Quick finish.
Sampled at El Buho Sept 2018
Amazing aroma. Dried fruit, chocolate, subtle ripe peach. medium body and mouth feel. Some slight astringency. overall nicely done.
Same grievance as the other expressions, this just isn’t agave forward! Let me say this anejo smells fucking AMAZING, makes you want to dive right in and swim around. I taste bourbon from start to finish, a very yummy bourbon but unfortunately it’s not kept it’s pedigree from agave. Good finish that would pair nicely with a cigar, give it a whirl if you have the $.
Nice amber color in the glass. Aroma starts with the charred oak and then some cooked agave. Those characteristics carry into the flavor. Smooth, long finish. A nice sipping alternative to bourbon or brandy. I should mention that I am a bourbon drinker.
Nose came in waves. 1st wave was heavy bourbon. Next wave was flowers, dried fruit and agave. 3rd was was baking spices, vanilla and fresh tropicals with a fading bourbon presence. Taste of vanilla, dark cherry, and bitter sweet chocolate. Followed by almonds, oak and heat. And a flavor that reminds me of grandma’s “hope chest”. Hmmm. Revision #3: 2/22/2019 I still find a slightly off taste in the finish. Almost a varnish like note.
Picked this up in Cabo late in 2017. Nothing special the añejo is very bourbon forward on the nose and the palate. Nothing offensive but there are a lot of products in the market that taste similar.
The combo of new American and French oak is interesting. Has quite a bit of this clove/nutmeg/spice to it.
Nice agave, carmel and vanilla with a bit of bourbon on the nose. Same on the taste profile with a nice pepper finish.Buttery and not too hot. On the lighter side of taste profile and complexity. Not bad anejo and good buy under 40 bucks
Wow! Not as heavy as most añejos. Much lighter and easier to drink. But very complex and reminiscent of red apples. Absolutely fantastic.
AROMA - Pronounced notes of buttery vanilla, spices, oranges, medium oakyness, and creamy caramel along with the sweetness of dried fruits. PALATE - Creamy mouth, good alcohol heat without being too hot or overwhelming. The aromas announce themselves on your palate with the addition of apricots and peaches, some light pepper and anise, and cinnamon. It all finishes quite nicely with a sweet oaky honey flavor.
Very strong smell. Lots of flavour. Farley whiskey/scotch/rum feeling and taste. Nice smooth after taste on pallet.
Aroma is a woody/okay smell quite like whiskey as well! Taste is peppery, caramel and oaky Finish is great
agave smooth barrel oak taste definitely recommend for a whisky or scotch drinker
This was vegetal and earthy medicinal. We found it really didn’t even seem like tequila. Odd plastic type aftertaste. And for $110!?!? Won’t happen again
Sweet, woody, coffee
vanilla and oak notes
Smells like whiskey and vanilla. Oaky. Smells better than it tastes. Acetone flavour.
Whiskey oaky
Floral, vanilla and whiskey throughout the aroma and taste. Stronger first sip than expected but great finish. Very understandable why this tequila has a big following in Mexico and beyond. Great flavour value for money.

Just excellent “unknown” tequila. So smooth with great agave, oak and cherry flavors. Paid $35

All the notes you would expect in an anejo with whiskey notes and floral aroma. Pleasant but not overly impressive.
