Review Detail

Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Anejo 2006 NOM 1122 Tasted 4/11/07. The tequila is golden brown in color and has intense earth, caramel, and floral aromas. Once you get past the intensity of the nose, you can smell moderate notes of vanilla and spice. On the tip of the tongue the tequila is mellow and soft, while feeling oily in the mouth. While the tequila is sweet, it is actually has low amount of bitterness. Now onto flavor. The flavor has intense floral and chemical attributes which are followed by moderate fruit, agave, and earth. The tequila also has mild vanilla and caramel. The tequilas finish is a medium-to-long duration of flavor followed by a slightly numbing and tingly alcohol feeling. Overall, I rated this tequila at the B+ level.
