Initial Taste: Slight bitterness, thin mouth feel, followed by sweet taste.
Body: Subtle agave presence, with slight hint of caramel and wood.
Finish: Of short duration with slight alcohol burn.

What a disappointment. To me, there wasn't any difference between this or the Milagro silver. it seems that this is nothing more than a marketing ploy to get the consumer to pay more for the same. I wouldn't even waste my money on this one (thankfully, I didnt). If you want to know what this tastes like, go and try Milagro silver. Same thing, different bottle.

Tasted 07/22/08 out of double ball. El Charro anejo leans on the 'a little bitter ' side of anejos for me. I liked it, but there are anejos I like alot more.
Initial Taste:Notes of caramel, earth, and spices.
Initial Taste:An oily mouth feel. On the tip of my tongue, it was fairly sweet, and a little bitter.
Body: Very intense spice and caramel, and slight agave and vanilla.
Finish: Of long duration, with slight alcohol intensity.

Tasted 07/22/08 out of high ball. I have my favorite top 5 blancos that always remind me of why I love blancos. This blanco does just that. Its a great blanco. I would never mix this one. It's one to be savored.
Aroma: Very pleasant nose of agave, floral and earth.
Initial Taste: A thin mouth feel, a 'nice' sweet with no bitterness.
Body: Very floral, very agave, with mild fruit and spice.
Finish: It was a nice long finish (yay!) with a nice alcohol intensity that was not overbearing.
