I was not at all disappointed with the result. Aroma: A nice mix of vanilla and citrus with lighter hints of earthy agave and spice. Initial Taste: Spicy agave with citrus and cinnamon aand hints of oak. Body: Medium body. Lots of flavors and character as it sits on the palate: light citrus, caramel, oak and earth. Finish: A nice long finish that has a great agave pepper bite along with brown spices and light oak. This is a very good reposado. It has great balance between the agave flavors and the aging and uses them in a complimentary way. Although this would be a great mixer, I think that I'd stick to just sipping this one straight. It's an outstanding tequila. Well done 7 Leguas! ]]> Thu, 10 May 2012 03:12:50 -0400 768-2019 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/7-leguas-tequila-reposado.html A very, very solid reposado. One of the most enjoyable reposados I've had in a while. Certainly a tequila that will find a lasting place on my shelf as a staple of my collection. Aroma: Toffee, brown sugar, citrus peel, pepper. Initial taste: Soft, sweet, with mild caramel and a "sugary" sensation (but not a sugary taste). A very welcoming first few moments! Body: Very smooth and sensuous on the palate. Slightly oily. Develops beautifully in a burst of flavor. Finish: Rounds out nicely and coats the mouth in wonderful flavors of fresh agave, spice, and citrus against a very mellow caramel background. This tequila is a near theatrical experience. It introduces itself as one thing and then changes to another almost instantly in a crescendo of flavor. My one complaint would be that I wish it were a bit more oily as it has a semi-thin mouthfeel. Altogether, though, this is a beautifully put together classic reposado. I'm just mad I hadn't tried it sooner. ]]> Sun, 14 Aug 2011 20:05:11 -0400 768-1668 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/7-leguas-tequila-reposado.html One of my favorite Reposado's. Has a very smooth lasting taste. Prefer to drink this neat. ]]> Sun, 05 Sep 2010 15:19:46 -0400 768-1114 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/7-leguas-tequila-reposado.html 7 Leguas Tequila Reposado, NOM 1120. A beautifully pale, golden color spirit. The open agave, peppery nose progressed into a wonderfully smoky, spicy, sweet agave taste experience. The body was even better when all the tastes came together and literally danced across my tongue in a long, enduring finish that lasted for quite some time. This tequila is as smooth as the other finest reposado's on the market. Because of the aforementioned attributes, 7 Leguas will always have a place in my bar & deserves to stand alongside the very best tequila's available. Even @ $40+ a bottle, this is a truly fine tequila worthy of the most discriminating palates. ]]> Fri, 08 May 2009 17:51:37 -0400 768-1071 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/7-leguas-tequila-reposado.html Tasted out of a snifter.
