Nose: Caramel apple pie right out of the gate. Once it opens up, it shifts from pie to juice - more tart, sugary apple with a processed edge. There’s oak and citrus in the mix, along with baking spice, and just a whisper of cooked agave if you’re really looking for it. Palate & Mouthfeel: Nice oiliness, good coat. Unlike the nose, the agave shows up early here - cooked and earthy - before the barrel notes take over. Cinnamon, black pepper, and that same sweet apple show up again, but now it’s caramel dipped and leaning more juicy than tart. A little one note, but not flat. Finish: Warm baking spice carries through, with lingering oak. The sweetness drops off, leaving more barrel than agave. Final Thoughts: Hard to say definitively, but I’d be very surprised if there aren’t additives here. The nose and finish have that overly polished, slightly synthetic feel. That said, it’s not bad - doesn’t come off as cloying or overly doctored. It’s not complex, but the flavor profile is accessible and checks a few boxes for an Añejo.

Green label, number 36624.

Medium amber in the glass. Aroma of caramel, oak and cooked agave. Flavor of caramel, black pepper, cooked agave, oak and a hint of vanilla that seems added. Medium finish.

In the aroma, there is a noticeable presence of yeast funk accompanied by hints of oak, brandy, molasses, and cooked agave. Upon tasting, wood notes take center stage, complemented by distinct yeast and molasses tones, along with flavors of cooked agave, dark cherry, and orange citrus. Subtle earthy undertones, light spice, and a touch of alcohol contribute to the warm taste, while hints of cocoa add depth to the overall profile. A lingering peppery sensation is present on the tongue. The finish has persistent flavors of molasses and cooked agave, accompanied by a light saccharine note and enduring orange citrus nuances. The peppery sensation on the palate continues throughout the tasting experience, providing a consistent presence from start to finish.

This was a green label and was quite delicious. Would recommend over the newer offering.

On the nose, Oak and caramel, masking cooked agave underneath. Some pepper. Whiskey. A touch of vanilla and apple. Fruity. Some citrus. Not bad. On the palate, Sweet agave, and something almost like apple juice. Caramel and vanilla, light whiskey notes. Really not bad, I can’t find any flaws. It’s not mind blowing, but it is pretty solid. I hear there’s diffuser juice mixed in, and that may be the case, but this is just a really easy drinking, clean and perfectly fine tequila. I can see the appeal. It’s got no heat, some tasty flavors, perfect for sipping or shooting, if you’re into that. I may be a little contrarian here, but I think it’s got a place. If you’re gonna drink a super commercial Cuervo product, this would be the one I’d suggest. I think it lacks that distinct diffuser chemical funk.

Nothing great has a big creamy mouth feel. Lots of oak. Almost like a burnt oakiness mixed with a slight bit a vanilla. Taste slightly artificial

Aroma is good but heavy with barrel-honey, brown sugar and dried apricots. Taste is ok. Not much action on the finish. For an inexpensive Añejo not bad. Overall smooth. For casa Cuervo this is as good as it gets.

This is a vintage Green Label Gran Centenario añejo, from back in the day...Not what you will find on store shelves today. Nose: Ripe red, jammy fruit. A warm vanilla and baking spice blend. Some orange zest. A little “snap” to the nose. Rich and fruity round oak aromas. The oak notes creep up in magnitude as it opens up. Flavors: Oily, spicy, peppery. A Cointreau note. Dark ripe cherries. Vanilla, nutmeg and leather. It’s like an opulent dessert with kick. Finishing impressions: Not crazy complex, but has a pleasing warm, comfortable style.

Average Anejo, whiskey like on the palate. Light in style. Prefer the repo from this producer for the money.

Rated blind. Some nice subtle chocolate notes the the aroma.

Gotta say I like this tequila, great use of oak and blending to achieve a good balance. This product could be an easy stand in for bourbon when recruiting new agave lovers.

Green Label

Sooooo much better and different than the current blue label. Nice crisp aromas of citrus , agave and vanilla/caramel. Those carry over into the flavors with a bit of alcohol and chocolate. Nice lingering finish with little burn compared to current version. This is actually the juice that got us started on this awesome agave journey. Getting harder to find but still some bottles out there for around 60 bucks or so, even from collectors. Great "old school" juice IMHO.

From a 3L green label bottle @ 38% ABV. This is very nice with a spicy finish. Cooked agave and barrel spice (caramel, cinnamon or clove and vanilla) on the nose. Nice mouthfeel but not oily or viscous. Some alcohol numbing even at the lower proof. Good long finish. Proves that Cuervo can make good tequila when they want to.

Awesome. Butter. Smooth. Fruit. Love it.

Nice agave aroma over sweet barrel.

Smells like home depot

A hint of Oak with a finish of cinnamon with a little afterburn in a good way

Color is straw like golden Smell as a alcohol burn with oak and vanilla Taste is cooked agavev definitely barrel whiskey and I get some vanilla and pepper. The vanilla seems possibly additives mouth feel average. Finishes a little bit similar, but I get a bit of alcohol and pepper, which hangs around and for me a bit medicinal Certainly sense some additives here but a pretty inexpensive Anejo not terrible

No: 4269320

Overpowering notes of Carmel. After drinking dozens of anejo this seemed artificial in color and taste compared to others. Great price though.

Easily available and cheap tequila. After the purchase from Don Julio noticed very much lower quality. That being said still recommended as a good beginner tequila due to available, price and taste. Have had people who exclusively drink whiskey on the rocks and enjoyed this tequila.

Good flavor of agave with black pepper and carmel. A slight peppery after bite on the tongue.

Plastic bottle taste then agave comes through
