Herencia Historico Anejo

Herencia Historico Anejo Tequila - This ultra-premium tequila aged for 5 years, commemorates the date of May 27th, 1997, when the European Union signed an agreement, officially recognizing the "Denomination of Origin, Tequila".

Herencia Historico is offered in a wooden box that is constructed of the same wood used in the casks, where traditional drinks are aged. Also in the package is a Riedel glass, specially designed for tequila, etched with Herencia Historico.

A lot of caramel or butterscotch on the nose but not as sweet tasting as I expected. Very 'whiskey-like' with a sharp - but not unpleasant - edge. There were hints of straw, smoke and molasses in the flavour. Quite a nice Tequila, but didn't blow my socks off.
(Note 1. Bottle was purchased without the box and/or glass.)
(Note 2. Price in Canada is ludicrous.)

Herencia Historico Anejo NOM 1124 Tasted 12/27/06. The tequila is a golden brown color and has an intense vanilla and caramel aromas. Once you get past the intensity of the nose, you can smell moderate notes of fruit. On the tip of the tongue the tequila is mellow and soft but yet has a moderate agave taste. While the tequila has a low-to-no bitterness, it is actually fairly sweet and syrupy. The flavor has moderate agave, vanilla, and smokey attributes which are followed by mild spice and earth. Lastly, there are mild flavors of fruit, floral and caramel accents. The tequilas finish is a short-to-moderate duration of flavor followed by a hot and tingling alcohol feeling. Overall, I rated this tequila at the A level and would definitely recommend it.
