Olmeca Altos Añejo Tequila

Neat. Tasting the entire Altos line..first time for the añejo. Nose is sweet, ethanol bright, fruity, barrel oak and must.. Moderately thin mouthfeel, honey/light caramel sweet, a little char, a little dessert nut (hazelnut/macadamia/almond), cinnamon, mint, and just barely some of the herbal notes of the younger expressions. Big fan of the younger expressions, and this is true to the brand The añejo notes are lighter than other cheap añejos, but also tastes more natural. Additives seem restrained if not absent. Great value, haven't found a better anejo for less $

A spicy nose with a hint of a vegetal quality to it. The spice is still there when tasting it almost reminding me of a sweet rye with a long slow finish. If you like whisky you might give this a shot

86 Nose - log/ earthy, yogurt, sweet smooth on tongue, caramel, buttery, light/thin with character Little oak, fruit caramel Definitely enjoyable

Tasty but a little harsh... Too much of that tequila smell and afterburn... Need to revisit

A very nice añejo, which really shows the age and wood. Sharp, woody, and whisky like

Smooth with a smokey ending little to no bite nice sipper neat.
