Lou and his friend Warren get into Terralta Añejo, made at the famous El Pandillo distillery.
If you think the term terroir only applies to wine, the Terralta line will make you think again. Aromas of soil (earth, mushrooms) and minerals remain even in the añejo, mixing pleasantly with barrel flavors such as vanilla, maple, and caramel.
Vessel: CT Jarrito Nose: Cooked Agave, Peach, Oak, Butter, Carmel, Grass, Minerality Palate: Barrelspice, Peach, Floral, Pear Finish: Peach, Chamomile, Anise, Thyme This was lovely, and although I got this from a sample swap, I do appreciate the value in this bottle and will be rating it accordingly. I found this to be slighly lighter than than the pasote anejo and much lighter than the G4 Anejo. I feel like this is an Añejo that a blanco/repo lover can enjoy pretty easily as the barrel aging feels feather light. *This got a higher score in part because of the extreme value.
