This is a limited edition release from El Llano Distillery that is made from 100% blue Weber agave that is individually selected by sibling tequileros Eduardo and Jaime Orendain. It is fermented in stone tanks and after distillation, it is matured for 48 months in first fill ex-bourbon barrels. Additive free.

6 years in Jack Daniels barrels might be a little too much. The barrel flavors have almost completely taken over to the point where there are very little tequila / agave flavors left. It's an acquired taste. It almost tastes like watered down JD. I prefer the regular anejo at 2-1/2 yrs of aging.
Sweet and smokey, whiskey-like in its mouthfeel and heaviness, hints of nuttiness to the taste, without the overpowering sweetness of a bourbon
A smooth exquisite expression loaded with agave, pepper, and dried fruit with hints of caramel and chocolate.
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
