Gran Centenario Tequila Anejo

Tobacco like nose.
Smooth easy finish.
Can drink much.
Beautiful bottle.
GREAT price: 29.99 at BevMo--why? I don't know. It was 58 last time I bought it there. at 29.99 it is a rating of 99!

Sweet Brandy like aroma.

Cant say this is a memorable line for me. Then again, Im not a fan of 1800 either and its from the same distillery.

Aroma: Cooked agave, probably my favorite part of this tequila.
Initial taste: A sweet entry with a slight bitterness. First taste is cinnamon.
Body: Agave, earth, and cinnamon.
Finish: A slightly heted finish with a short lingering of agave.

Tasted 12/7/14 from a Riedel Tequila Glass.
Appearance: Dark amber color. It looks well aged.
Aroma: Cooked agave, oak, caramel, and spices.
Initial Taste: Very smooth agave and oak with a smoky flavor. Caramel, ginseng, and other spice notes were also present.
Body: Medium body with slow tears on the glass. It has a light, buttery mouthfeel. The flavors are complex but nicely balanced and compliment each other.
Finish: Smooth medium-length toasted agave finish with caramel and spice notes that linger.
Price: $23.99 to $59.99 (RRP: $59.99)
Presentation: A tall and attractive bottle with a synthetic cork stopper.

This anejo was aged for 18 months in lightly charred oak barrels. This process imparted a distinctive smoky or toasted oak flavor, which I enjoyed as it added to the complexity of this well-aged tequila. Overall, I found this to be a very nice sipper. The good news is you don’t have to pay the RRP of $59.99 as it is widely available and heavily discounted to the $25 - $30 range. At this price I will always have a bottle in my collection.
