Don Eduardo Tequila Anejo

Bought 4/28/10, paid $50 at a big "bev" store. First off the bottle, its unremarkable, the cork top is a shooter (read stupid) thing ala 1800... it works fine as a stopper. Color is light straw, very pale, leaves fast legs and gathers quickly on the sides. Nose is subtle agave, semi sweet, nothing reaches out and crawls up your nostrils. Medium thin in the mouth, no need to hold it. On the way down you get a little heat pop on the roof of the mouth that quickly fades and leaves a dull alcohol numbing that lingers. A good tequila, smooth, but no risks, no surprises. Not bad, but not a favorite. For the $ there are better out there.

Don Eduardo is one of my favorites, with a very bold taste, and an awesome nose, this anejo is a must in a casual drinkers cabinet, this is the epitome of a all around drinking tequila,awesome for the avid sipper, and also good to use in food recipes the clarity was clearwith medium depth,and a nice golden brown color,Don Eduardo did a really good job in bringing out the aromas in the anejo,well rested,not too complex,yet the subtle taste of smoke,and butter were very pleasing,this anejo is a definite plus in every aficionados collection, with it's fullness and well balanced alcohol and finish,with a very memorable aftertaste,the Orendain family did well with this one.

A nice bold Anejo with strong finish.
