The Anejo is aged for over 3 years & at XQ they use three different types of new, wooden casks to age their Tequilas in: American white oak, French Limousin oak & Mexican Encino. The nose is full & rich & sweet vanilla notes shine through. The palate is warm & soft with notes of aniseed & white pepper. This is a perfect sipping Tequila of great depth & weight which is also incredibly well balanced.
