This one is "interesting". I bought it because it was a couple of dollars cheaper than the 1800 Añejo, and it's not awful. However, the oak flavor in it seems more like fresh oak lumber rather than something older and more mellow. I get the impression the oak wasn't even charred at all; it's more like I'm in a Home Depot buying some really nice wood. It's great for lumber; not so much for sipping. I will not be buying this again.
