El ateo XA Thank you to Cecilia Wong from agave swappers for this sample I'm really liking this. I'm finding the nose a bit different from the palate. Nose: Dried fruit, barrel spices Palate: I'm getting a strong vanilla, some dried fruit and even a little coffee bean in the flavor profile (where does that come from?!) Finish: nice, a warmth that comes back around with some sweetness and spice Overall, its a little sweet. good for a cold winter night. would love to revisit
Carmel, cooked agave and light black pepper. on nose and palate. not super complex but super tasty. Great value.
Aroma: Cacao/dark chocolate, honey, caramel, vanilla, dried fruit, spices Flavor: Cooked agave, caramel, peppery (mineral), super smooth and complex Taste: ABV, Bitter (spices), Sweet such a nice XA, just wow
Great Extra Anejo at an amazing price ($100)
New bottle just drop in for 2nd shipments from total wine. They don’t even have the next deliver day yet. I am grabbing most of them. Very rounded tequila with strong cooked agave when first coming in, sweetness is mild to come with the long silky finish. Daily drink if more available.
Nice, easy, not overly complex. Lots of minerality. Somewhat of a thin mouthfeel. Excellent value at $99. Minorly disappointed that TMM info and picture has this at 42abv, but my SoCal Total Wine version is the standard 40abv. I feel like a slight bump in abv would have made this amazing.
This was a really enjoyable pour. Rich, well-rounded, and nicely balanced for an extra anejo. It leans into the barrel influence, but the agave still shows up and keeps everything in check. On the nose, cooked agave is present right away, layered with vanilla and oak. Butterscotch and caramel add a smooth sweetness, while dried fruit and a touch of cherry bring some depth and complexity. Barrel spice ties it all together and gives it that classic extra anejo warmth. On the palate, the cooked agave carries through, supported by vanilla and oak. Butterscotch and caramel add richness, while black pepper and cinnamon provide a gentle spice. Baking spice and dried fruit linger on the finish, giving it a warm, silky, and satisfying close. Overall, this is a polished and thoughtfully made extra anejo that delivers plenty of flavor without going overboard. A solid, refined tequila that’s easy to sit with and savor.
