I absolutely love the blanco from this line.  So much that when I saw the anejo on sale that I had to try it.  Can it live up to it's lesser aged brother?

Price: $40-50/bottle
Aroma: Agave and oak, but a fairly light aroma for an anejo without the normal sweet influences from the wood.
Initial Taste: More like a reposado than an anejo.  Nice agave flavors and light wood and vanilla flavors, but not a ton of aging influnce.
Body: Light body for an anejo and semi-oily.  A very nice flavor with oak, spice and light caramel flavors, but not heavy at all.
Finish: A very smooth and tasty finish.  No burn at all and a fairly short finish. A bit of light spice as well.  Again, more like a reposado than an anejo, but a decent overall flavor.

It's not quite as good as the blanco, but is a decent tequila.  However, the fact that this is most often in the $45-50 range, it is probably overpriced.  If you can find it on sale, go ahead and get a bottle, but there's plenty more out there in the price range that has more complex and better overall flavors.


Where to Buy:
