Review Date: March 12, 2009
Category Info: Tequila :: Aņejo - 100% de Agave
Distilled From: Agave
Retail Price: $$$$ ($40-$50)
Brewer / Distiller: La Cofradia NOM 1137
Strength: 80
Origin: Mexico

Tasting Notes:

Hugely sweet vanilla and caramel. Seems manipulated as well. There is more oak on theis so it is a bit more peppery than the reposado. The big caramel is there but not as extreme as the repo. Maybe because the added time in oak contrasts it. This is nice but again too sweet for purists in my opinion.
