I was an early fan of Xolo. I had the pleasure of meeting Edmund in GDL. I say this because I want to be transparent. Also know that he let me taste this when I met him. However, the bottle I am reviewing I bought with my own money. As a HP lover, I can tell you that I am excited to have an HP Extra Añejo. Let’s start with the bottle. A beautiful etches glass one liter with Mexican art style Xolo dog. I love that this XA still has some cooked agave on the nose. It is fruity with cherry and peach. I get a sweet molasses note. I also get barrel notes. On the palate, it is not as barrel influenced as many XAs that I have had. I do get vanilla, agave, leather and alcohol. The ABV influence is not perfect in my opinion but it is close. I also get some honey and some fruit. A bit of earthiness and a touch of pipe tobacco. Finish has nice viscosity and last a decent amount of time. Some alcohol burn on the finish. I am happy to own this bottle and I am looking forward to rounding out my Xolo collection when the Still Strength arrives next week.

Xolo XA is aged for 5 years in American Oak barrels in the Highlands of Jalisco at Hacienda Capellania NOM1545. All Xolo expressions come in at 46% ABV / 92 proof in a 1-liter bottle. Xolo is meant to be shared. Let’s dig in. - Like many of the aged Highland tequilas, I get a lot of fruit on the nose. There’s a mix of peaches, cherries, plums, and nectarines (stone fruits). I also detect cooked agave, light brown sugar, and some slight barrel spices. Overall it’s a very balanced aroma with the fruit being the most prevalent note. — I taste the buttery cooked agave and some barrel notes immediately. There’s spice that hits right away thanks to the 92 proof. The barrel notes are dark and dense. There are hints of molasses, black cherries, raw honey, figs, leather, and black pepper. There’s a dry tannic quality that I commonly get from tequilas that are aged in American oak barrels (ex-bourbon). The higher proof helps to deliver a pleasant density of flavors and a nice long finish. The sweetness and proof interacts nicely. It’s a very pleasant sipper. - Overall the nose is fruity and juicy while the taste is denser and darker with a little bit of alcohol proof that delivers some spiciness. This is an excellent Highland XA! Great job Ernesto!
