Nose was not very pleasant, although I did enjoy a subtle cinnamon scent along with a hint of lemon and even a slight grass aroma.

Tasted of a subtle cinnamon, spice, moderate agave presence, earthiness, and a spicy mid-to-long finish.

At this price point there are many others I'd prefer. I was fairly disappointed based on the popularity of this brand compared to similarly popular brands such as Don Julio, El Tesoro, and Patron.

Tasted on 12/26/08 out of a snifter. I had been wanting to try this anejo for some time now to round out the entire line. In my opinion, I think Cabo Wabo anejo is their best offering. So while I wont be running out to get a bottle of this for home, Id be happy sipping it at a bar.

Aroma: A light nose of vanilla.
Initial Taste: A semi oily mouth feel, it was sweet upon entry, with a slight bitterness. Initial taste was vanilla.
Body: Actually a pretty decent body of agave, cinnamon, vanilla, and earth.
Finish: A semi heated finish of short duration with a lingering of vanilla.

I had a very unique experience with this tequila that made me try it twice. It wasn't because I really liked it; it was just OK, it was because I thought there was a taint in the tequila and I made them open another bottle and let me try it again!? There was something in the aftertaste that I noted in this one that was sweet and wine like in quality, sort of the flavor you get from something that is aged in a sherry cask.
Has anybody else had that experience. I don't know if they age this in a sherry cask or if there is something else here but I could not get the taste out of my mind.

Cabo Wabo Anejo NOM 1467 Tasted on 5/21/07 at 6:30pm. I purchased 1.5 ounces of this tequila at Zocalo in Sacramento, CA for $10 and tasted it out of a snifter. With a yellow golden color, this tequila has intense aromas of floral and earth. Other aromas include moderate fruit and spice also, mild vanilla and hints of caramel and smoke. The tequila has a thin oily mouth feel and the first sip is sweet with mild bitterness. Cabo Wabo Anejo has numerous arrays of flavors due to its 1 to 5 years of aging. Intense flavors of earth are followed by moderate notes of agave, spice, and smoke. With a medium-to-short duration of flavor, tastes of mild chemicals, fruit, floral, and caramel with a hint of vanilla bring this tequila to a numbing finish. Cabo Wabo Anejo has received the rating of 88 points out of 100.
