Tasting Notes and Technical Description:
Visual Appearance:
Upon pouring, one is immediately struck by the lustrous, deep amber hue that only extensive barrel aging can afford. The color profile is a visual lexicon of its time in charred oak barrels, giving it a regal aura.
Nose (Aroma):
The olfactory profile is an exquisite mélange of complexity. Traditional agave sweetness takes on a darker, more caramelized tone, intermingling with vanilla, dark chocolate, and a spectrum of spices including cinnamon and cloves. A background note of dried fruits like fig and raisin add further complexity.
Palate (Taste):
The first sip is nothing short of transformative. This Extra Añejo introduces itself with rich caramel and vanilla, leading into a dance of spices and oak-derived tannins that balance out the initial sweetness. It offers a depth that speaks to its 8 years of maturation, revealing layered flavors that continue to unfurl with each subsequent sip.
Finish:
An extended finish, luxuriously warm and silky, leaves a tapestry of toasted oak and spices on the palate. The complexity lingers, never rushing, allowing for a full absorption of its nuanced character.
Mouthfeel:
It possesses a voluptuous mouthfeel—rich, velvety, and almost nectar-like. This is a tequila that demands to be savored, each sip a continuation of the last, each moment deepening the overall experience.
