December 03, 2008 This anejo has remnants of both the blanco and reposado. I drank side-by-side against the Don Augustin reposado. The nose is more pronounced than the reposado. The aroma is mild fruit and reminded me of a box of raisons. The tequila was oily and had a smoky, cedar-like initial taste with faint sweetness and a slightly bitter finish. Overall, good but not spectacular. My favorite anejos are Don Julio 1942 and Don Julio. I've also tried Pueblo Viejo Orgullo, Corzo, and Herradura. I like this better than the reposado. Not bad for around $26.

 December 02, 2008 Nice sweet aroma of honey/caramel, mild vanilla, and floral. Sweet honey/caramel, butter, and green olive initial taste with a hint of bitterness. Almost reminded of a cross between Bit-O-Honey candy and a dirty martini. Other notes include wood and smoke. The finish is smooth with a subtle bitter, spicy, peppery and wood caramel finish. Not bad for around $25. My limited experience on repososados includes Don Julio, 1921 Especial, Clase Azul, and Corralejo. I would say that this is a great deal but I'm totally stuck on the 1921 and really like the Clase Azul (but it's out of my price range). We'll see how the battle plays out between my pocket book and my palette. As of this writing and limited experience, I'd give this a B+/A- rating.

 December 02, 2008 I tasted this tequila on three separate occasions from three separate bottles. I am relatively new to the world of tequila and by no means an expert. I must say the first bottle floored me. Not only do I think this was the best bargain, I thought this was one of the best blanco tequilas that I tasted BY FAR (and I've tasted Patron, Cabo, Los Abuelos, El Tesoro, Asombroso). I thought this was the smoothest, sweetest tequila that I've had. Creamy was the best way to describe it. The reviews below were dead-on. On the downside, however the next two bottles did not have the same great taste (by my personal standards), good but not as good. The differences being that it had a slightly bitter aftertaste with less initial sweetness, not creamy. Almost an aftertaste of how gravel smells. Overall, for half the price of the local staple, Patron, a great blanco and a sure regular on my shelf. I also ordered the reposado and anejos by Don Augustin. Has anyone noticed any consistency issues with this line, or was I just spoiled by my first bottle? I'm giving this an A+ on the first bottle and and a B+ on the next two for an overall 92.

 November 26, 2008 Purchased from Ramirez. Was intrigued by the reviews stating that this was a lot of bang for the buck. The Aroma was a subtle fruit and caramel but not that strong. When I tasted this tequila I noticed that it was thin, somewhat dry. Some people like this feel for a tequila, however I like my anejos to taste sweet and almost syrupy (i.e. Don Julio). I agree with the previous reviews calling the taste mellow and soft. I would say that this reminded me a tad of Herradura in this respect. The tequila followed with moderate notes of agave and the same caramel and fruit that was evident in the nose. The finish had a long duration with a medium, spicy burn. Overall, this is a good value for around $40, however for my tastes and a few dollars more, I would much rather have Don Julio Anejo for it's aroma and sweet citrusy taste or the 1921 Especial (though technically a reposado). I would rate this at the B-level.
