A fantastic anejo from the folks at Cascahuin & Andy Bardon. First things first, I want to applaud the team for making the decision to allow this anejo to be released at an impressive 47% ABV. This anejo could have easily been watered down to a lesser ABV for one reason or another, but not here. The result is an intense, complex, dense, and viscous sipping experience. On the nose, a burst of cinnamon, caramel, cooked apple, stone fruit, and honey. Hints of a minerality here, and there is a definite intensity that the higher ABV is giving to this anejo. The palate of this anejo is a basket of fruits, with cinnamon sticks, butterscotch, berries, caramel again, vanilla, red clay, cherry and cooked down agave. The finish is my favorite part of this anejo. It just keeps going and going, with more of the fruits coming out towards the back palate. The viscosity of this juice is thick, and latched onto my palate for quite some time. Wild Common Anejo is a triumphant new entry into the aged tequila market, and I hope other brands take notice.

Stunner. The 47% ABV pronounces itself proudly, and I think you'll agree it's a special treat. Shout out to Ryan Meaney for a stellar review - he is spot on. Immaculate aromas. Cooked agave is surrounded with notes of butterscotch, cinammon simmered apples, loads of stone fuit, minerality, and a splash of sweetness. This a balanced nose that really begs one to take the time to enjoy. On the mouth, you get that ABV. This is a chewy, viscous anjeo that punches you immediately with pepper and cinammon spice. The oak bourbon barrel influences come alive in splendid fashion. The back end opens up and brings forth honey, vanilla, faint fruit (peach, melon, and cherry), baking spices, and pepper. The finish is eviseral. A great warm hug. Every time i open up a Wild Common I think to myself, I need more of this in my life.
