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.

Tasted 07/23/08 out of double ball glass. 4 Copas anejo was an amazing experience. I actually prefer their anejo more than their reposado or blanco. And this is coming from a blanco drinker! To me, a very complex and memorable anejo. If I was to stock an anejo in my house, this one would be a candidate.

Aroma: I detected notes of vanilla, caramel, and agave. Actually, in that order.
Initial Taste: On the tip of my tongue, very sweet and almost syrup like. No bitterness.
Body: A very complex body with many flavors. Agave, a sweet vanilla, smoke, and wood.
Finish: I was a bit disappointed, but it was a short finish with a decent alcohol intensity.

Tasted 07/23/08 out of double ball glass. Espolon reposado, for what it is, is a good reposado. Just not the kind of reposado I prefer.

Aroma: Mild agave nose, with a bolder nose of smoke and caramel.
Initial Taste: A thin mouth feel. On the tip of the tongue, with heated intensity, its fairly sweet with slight bitterness.
Body: Mellows out to agave, floral, oak and intense spice.
Finish: Of medium duration with a slight alcohol burn.
