  • Excerpt: A medium-to-full body and a medium-to-long dried fruits, balsamic, ginger and walnut finish. A rich, barrel-aged añejo that tastes older than it is.

  • Excerpt: It’s all about the body. While I expect anejo to be a smooth, vanilla-infused, whiskey-like experience, Lunazul is muddy. I love the idea of an affordable 100% agave tequila — that’s what Cuervo Tradicional was made for — but Lunazul just doesn’t quite cut it.

  • Intro:

    Aged for 18 months in white oak barrels, Lunazul Anejo, distilled by Tierra de Agaves, is an Anejo style tequila.

  • Nose:

    Sweet cream, honey, root bear candies, vanilla bean and toffee. Sweet on the nose, not a ton of agave character, mostly sweet barrel notes.

  • Taste:

    Thin to medium on the palate. Some agave character here - warm papaya, fresh bread, toffee and some minerality. Lots of caramel, honey, vanilla bean, light oak.

  • Finish:

    Surprisingly long finish. Lots of cocoa, earth, roasted agave sugar and some caramel.

  • Overall:

    While not amazing, Lunazul Anejo is far from rife with flaws. It’s not the most interesting Anejo on the block, but if your primary focus is mixology, this will do just fine for the $.
