Tequila Gran Centenario Anejo

Gran Centenario Aneejo is made from 100% Blue Agave, aged for 18 months in toasted American oak barrels. It is light-bodied with mild Agave with toasted wood overtones.

The label on this bottle reminds us of a tequila legend: More than 150 years ago, Lazaro Gallardo calls for an angel, in order to hold a watchful eye on his still growing agaves.

I bought this in Indiana for $40 if memory serves me well. It was on clearance there and for that price I think it was a good buy. Not a great anejo, but very good. I wouldn't buy it again, but wouldn't complain about it either.

Very sweet aroma, floral, light spice, and a smokey oak which was very present in the body as well. I wish there was a bit more agave flavor, but the nice sweet taste was fairly light and crisp for what a medium, almost thick (not quite, but thicker than I thought it would be), anejo. There was a small hint of vanilla too that was nice, but for me the primary flavors overall were oak and kind of a sweet floral flavor (I don't usually describe a FLAVOR as floral, but it kind of tasted like the floral scent in it if that makes sense).

Anyway... good anejo, not great, but respectable for sure.

Gran Centenario Anejo (Green Label) NOM 1122 Tasted 6/29/07 at 4:10pm. On this date I tried this tequila at Zocalo using a snifter. This tequila is an amber brown color and has intense aromas of earth and fruit. There are also moderate aromas of caramel and vanilla followed by mild notes of floral and spice. A soft taste on the tip of the tongue leads to a low amount of sweetness with mild bitterness. The Gran Centenario Anejo flavor contains intense agave flavors with moderate floral and earth. The tequila also has mild notes of fruit, caramel, wood, chemicals, and smoke. Gran Centenario Anejo finishes with a medium to long duration of flavor and a subtle numbing alcohol feeling. This tequila has been awarded the overall rating of 87 points out of 100.

I really enjoy this anejo. It is very simple, has a sweet aroma, lots of oak , vanilla, a little smoke and spice. It is smooth but the finish is a little weak, but still a great tequila for the price. The presentation is ok, a little simple, but I like the cool cardboard tube it comes in.
