$25 find at Trader Joe’s. Delicious

Extremely sweet and artificial flavor. This is about $20 for an anejo, so I can see how people would purchase it, but there is not much complexity to it

  • 70 Rating

For a relatively low priced anejo, this is still not worth it. There are so many better anejos that you will never return for a second round of this.

not sure about this one... nothing really jumps out for flavor or aromas.

Heavy vanilla. Not usually my style but I like the Macho!

The name almost made me pass on this tequila but surprisingly you don’t need to be macho at all to enjoy this anejo. It’s quite smooth with very little heat at the end. Notes of unsweetened chocolate towards the end. Well worth a try.
