“Enjoyed this immensely. Perfect 25 on the nose, wow. This 7yr still manages to stay agave forward, but adds those complimentary barrel and wine notes so well. I didn’t get any of the bitterness others have mentioned. Only thing to holding it back from being an all-timer is price. At the $700ish retail, it’s insane. But I picked mine up for $250ish and I’m regretting not getting two.”

Elevación1250 Tequila Reposado
“Based on the neck pour, but a bit boozey on the nose. That will likely mellow. Once I get past that it’s agave, oak and a bit of… everything. Taste is better. Very smooth. A bit more barrel than I prefer, but again, some time with 02 might help bring the agave out more. A lot going on here but overall very well balanced for such light color. Got mine on a visit to Canada- brand owner is Canadian A little harder to find in the US, but it is available. At under $50 this is a pretty good value. ”

“It started good with this lemon sweet note but all of a sudden it became aggressive and punchy. I wanted to love it but there are so many better options especially for the price.”

“Butter scotch and orange notes with a melon note and second sip turns around and now a lite cinnamon hint with lemon like honey peppery finish. This wonder makes cozy and warn on a nice cold day. It reminded me that tequila can be so wholesome. ”

Casamigos Tequila Añejo
“If vanilla flavored floor cleaner had a name, it would be called Casamigos Anejo. I Would not recommend and I will not be buying it again. ”
More info →“Another excellent release by Doug at the Agave Social Club and Siempre. Across the nose and palate I got nice hints of caramel, brown sugar, honey and pepper. The barrel influence is certainly there but the presence of cooked agave still comes through. Doesn’t drink like a typical high proof.”
