  • Intro:

    A fairly standard Anejo, this is Codigo 1530 Anejoy, a release from George Strait's tequila brand.

  • Nose:

    Roasty agave, some vanilla. Sweet pear, a bit of cream, and a hint of stone and minerality. Light clay, sweet fruitiness.

  • Taste:

    Oak is present here, but well enough integrated. A bit of cocoa, caramel, roasty vanilla bean and a touch of cinnamon and tannin. Light mouthfeel, no real heat.

  • Finish:

    Medium finish that's dry, a bit on the fruity side. Caramel, vanilla, more roasted agave notes and a touch of oak.

  • Overall:

    Overall, it's not bad. It won't best some of the really crazy Anejo's or extra Anejo's out there, but it's just fine.

  • Score:

    5
