Aroma: Pure aromas of cooked agave layered with citrus, hints of vanilla, and minerality. Flavor: Initially sweet, very agave forward with some notes of the vanilla and oak in the back, creamy consistency. Finish: Very clean finish, with a nice minerality, flavors of black pepper, and a very slight alcohol bite. Overall: Another excellent G4 tequila. Very light on the color and definitely leans more towards a blanco. Similar in certain ways to the Siete Leguas añejo.
Aroma of agave, cinnamon, and light yeast. Flavor has iakiness but very subtle and the great flavor profile of the Repo really lies at the foundation. Peppery slightly hot spices and a little more burn than the Repo but its very bearable and enjoyable since it's a flavorful burn.
Nose: Sweet agave. Vegetal notes, light caramel, touch of orange peel/pith. Vanilla that slowly gets more prominent after a few minutes in my snifter. Palate: Definitely agave, surprisingly mild on the oak to my taste. Vanilla is there, with some nice minerality. Slight ethanol burn that fades quickly into a peppery finish. Very clean, crisp añejo that maintains the character of the much believed Felipe Camarena blanco. Very long finish. I definitely recommend trying this if you like cleaner añejos with agave that doesn’t get overpowered by aging.
Huge fan of G4 XA and Blanco, not sure if there is such a thing as a bad bottle, tasted this with another tequila taster, we both agreed the after taste and finish was funky and unusually hot. Going to grab another bottle and retaste. Update originally gave this a 78, definitely had a tainted bottle. Bought another, restated and up my faith in G4!
Just reviewed this as my #tequilaoftheweek number 45 on @the_tequila_wanderer IG page. Can’t say enough good things about this. I obviously enjoy everything coming out of el Pandillo and this Anejo is no exception. Light oak and caramel on the profile, plenty of cooked blue agave notes and light pepper on the back end of the profile. Highly recommend
Aroma : Cooked agave, grass, apricot/peach fruity notes, and cinnamon. Taste : Light in character but full bodied with oils and cooked agave, light oak, vanilla and black pepper. Some earth notes as well. Finish : Long lasting with previous taste notes with some stronger agave here, and some almond and toffee notes. This is a really nice Añejo. However, this would probably score in the 90+ range if there had been more of the fruit notes on the taste and finish.
Easily one of the best Anejo’s on the market, it still has tons of agave present. The oak is very complimentary, in most tequilas it bulldozes away a lot of other flavours but the Camarena’s seem to have perfected this balance. Get a bottle for home.
Slight vanilla on the nose, with taste of vanilla, agave, and floral. Nicely done.
Beautiful straw color for añejo, baked agave and citrus on the nose. Very nuanced oak flavor, refreshing to have an añejo be this agave forward. Clean, long finish and the right amount of punch.
Bright grassy agave nose. Tropical fruits, citrus, clean. Like the style. Silky on the tongue with vanilla and pepper. Bold agave and toffee after tones with warming heat. A favorite.
Lightly aged añejo, with warm, buttery, cinnamon and peach aromas. Great flavor that isn't overly oaked. Thumbs up!
Light straw color. Floral, and slightly sweet aroma with a nice sweet cooked agave in there too. Medium viscosity and mouth feel. Very nice touch of sweet and mineral taste with a bit of pepper . Clean , crisp and mellow .....
Taste of minerality and pepper, smooth finish
I rated this on my 3rd trip to this bottle. First pour of this, I wasn’t sure what the hype was all about. Didn’t care for it. After letting it open up, this became a must have Anejo for me.
Nose: cooked agave, minerals, vanilla, citrus, buttery, pepper, anise Palate: pepper, mineral, cooked agave, anise, vanilla, butter scotch Finish: smooth/clean, vanilla and buttery lingers, great finish!
Everything is great but the price. You get what you pay for. Excellence isn’t cheap.
LOT L0001A, bottled on 08/02/15, Mexican 38% abv. version. Color: yellow. Aroma: cooked agave, mint, a touch of acidity, very light wood notes, fresh, light body, alcohol sensation is low. Palate: slightly sweet cooked agave, minty, fresh, very light wood notes that do now overpower other aromas & taste, slightly acidic. Finish is medium to medium long, light sweet cooked agave with minty notes persist.
Pepper
clean crisp Anejo Agave, oak, vanilla
Aroma: fruity. Definitely sweet. Caramel and vanilla, but not over powering. Got some floral hints. Sweet agave. Amazing. Palate: sweet in the back, floral and agave in the front. Taste the oak and comes with a very solid finish. Smooth heat - lasts about 180 seconds or so. Paid $100 so I have to give the value about a 7/10. I would recommend and would definitely try again.

G4 always comes out with excellent quality, this añejo is no exception. Just like many other G4 products you need to open the bottle for it to breathe then come back to it later, taste is immaculate. If we could get cheaper tequila this would make it to 90.
