Sauza Tres Generaciones Tequila Anejo

Tasted on 08/22/08 out of double ball glass. A good anejo, not great. I taste some additives in the tres generaciones line so it's not one of my favorites. Still, it was good to try and it's decent.

Aroma: Oak, vanilla, and spices.
Initial Taste: Upon entry into mouth, its sweet, and a little bitter.
Body: Agave, oak, and 'additives'.
Finish: A short heated finish of short duration.

I've enjoyed many good evenings with Three G's over the past several decades. This isn't an outstanding anejo, but it is a good one and far better than what most folks think of when they hear "tequila."

The nose is pleasant with definite agave and very slightly smokey. Initial taste is slightly sweet, with a little lemon. Body is smooth and a little oily. The finish has definite oak and citrus. Overall, a good tequila but without any real distinguishing characteristics. A decent pure agave anejo, and that's always a good thing. For the price, I usually go for something else, but I'd never consider this to be a bad choice.

Tres Generaciones anejo has got a good oak flavor to it. I found that it had a slight alcohol burn going down but nothing that bad. I enjoyed drinking it on the rocks but as a shot I didn't think it was great (that could be because it was warm though). All and all I would say it is a decent Anejo.

This tequila is not given enough credit than it deserves. To my surprise, this was a very good Tequila for the price.

Aroma: Hints of caramel and Agave
Initial Taste: Somewhat bland; however, hints of sweet fruit creep up on you.
Finish: Very smooth, no bite, slight heat, overall very easy to sip
Price: Very affordable for a premium Tequila
Presentation: Leaves something to be desired...bottle looks like a rocky barrel, does not really stand out.

Overall, this was a very good tequila. Cannot sat it was the best I have ever had; however, it is way better than what I had expected. I would highly recommend trying out this tequila. It is cheap and very easy and enjoyable to drink.

I enjoyed the carmel nose at the first tip of the glass
