legit sweetness and delicious complicated notes.

Quite woody from the extended aging, the price also holds this back for me in the rating. Strong oak notes with minimal agave influence and some heavy char elements from the barrel.

Nose: Love this nose! Penetrating ripe round fresh fruit aromas marrying nicely with bourbon oak. Dried fruit: apricot, plum and and citron. There are spices of cinnamon, cloves and prominent vanilla weaving their way through the nosing. A final note of pungent minerals. Flavor: The 44.4% ABV makes for a vibrant mouth experience. It is spicy, having a slightly acrid black pepper note, some jalapeño, a white pepper afterthought, peachy nuances, vanilla and a “creamy” woodiness. You have to dig to find agave notes. Finish: The palate and finish on this tequila remind me of top tier XAs. It has been a difficult tequila for me to rate. It has more oak and bourbon presence than I normally appreciate. But the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Citrus, leather, pitted fruit, oak aromas. Vanilla, cooked agave, raisin flavors. Great finish of moderate length. Thick mouth feel. Solid product.

Mmmmmmmm..that Chamucos funk. Love the now..hints of fruit, minerals, vapors, hints of all spiced oak the chat brings out the best! Such wonderful layers ..spice, plum like fruits nuances , some heat..viscous and warm. Agave on the back side. This is a great representation of an XA. Price is only knock. guess good things are worth the cost at times. Live once, enjoy tequila!

I feel like the SS is a bit more aromatic than this XA. Definitely more mellow and cleaner on the nose. The musty note I get with this brand is faint with some vanilla. On the palate … oaky, some agave, mellow, definitely can be a whiskey lovers gate way drug. This is very oak forward to me but in a good way.

Smells like mezcal

Rich agave, honey butter, and toffee. Lots of citrus and pepper in the finish. Waxy mouthfeel. Great pour here.

Creamy mouthfeel. Butterscotch on the nose. Vanilla, caramel, agave,. Bit of pepper spice. Warm and smooth - very, very nice finish. Great sipper.

Great tequila with notes of cooked agave, caramel, caramelized pineapples, apricots, figs, cinnamon, mexican hot chocolate, leather, mocha, star anise, and cherries.

Classic Extra Anejo style. Clean and complex aromas of cooked Agave. Lovely spice notes, vanilla, toffee, caramel, and citrus fruits. Nice finish.

oh my this is a sipper. ripe fruit, oak, hints of vanilla and caramel. I just wanted to smell it. long legs. great work. steeped in the dulce of roasted agave.

Strong butterscotch on nose, hint of pineapple. Sweet vanilla and oak notes with slight bite and alcohol on mouth. Higher content but very pleasant

So happy I picked this up. Easy sipping extra anejo with a dark side that really lingers on for quite some time after each sip.

Major bargain if I can ever find it for under $90 again. Definitely an oak presence but the high proof lends to a nice finish

very light aroma, smooth flavor, definastely has tones of the oak barrel. finish drops off fast
