An outstanding XA from an outstanding distillery, great balance of agave, oak, and citrus with a smooth finish

Agave still very present, black pepper and hints of banana with a long finish.

one of my favorites, when i want an XA with very little oak in it i reach out for the G4 .. clean, smooth and complex ..

Smells like a clean ingredient, aged tequila should smell. Great mouth feel. A little hot, alcohol. Clean, agave, no artificial sweet. Lovely, smooth, clean, finish. The hot melts away. Much better than the sweetened, soft, over oaked, stuff that people often pay a lot more for.

Aroma : Cooked agave and floral notes with mint and citrus. For an extra añejo that was definitely a surprise. Not much oak or aged notes to speak of. Taste : Crisp underlying agave and light oak. Caramel and almond/hazelnut predominate with some degree of baking spice. This is lightly sweet and somewhat spicy. Oily and complex too. Finish : Long and prolongs all the taste notes with some stronger baking spice. Top tier extra añejo. I hope I'll be able to find the "55" version soon because this was a hard one to put down.

very, very smooth

not a great after taste

Lots of agave on the nose, well balanced with the barrel. Very light on the palette for an XA with little barrel dryness. Finish is fairly clean with some surprising citrus.

G4 Extra Anejo This nose is full of cooked agave and buttery vanilla. The agave punches through nicely, you only get some slight oak but a sweet clean finish. I appreciate that Felipe utilizes older used barrels for aging. This allows the tequila tastes to still dominate without the oak taking over. Well done. ¡Salud!

A great extra Añejo with notes of cooked agave, caramel, pepper, rainwater, and dried fruit. Oak complements and doesn’t overpower the agave.

Fucking delicious and I’m not usually an extra anejo fan, tons agaves with so much else going on in all areas...pineapples and chocolate and all the best from the oak. Soo good!!!

This XA is one of my favorites to date. For the price, the value is excellent. Felipe is a mad scientist when it comes to creating epic juice and this is no exception. The aroma is of cooked agave, butterscotch and caramel. On the palate you will be treated with an agave-forward taste with a slightly orange blossom, citrusy taste with an oaky/woody, black peppery finish.

Best Tequila I’ve had yet!! Excellent

Shocking. I am not and X-A drinker but this was amazing

Good color, enjoyed the deep agave nose, but felt it was downhill from there. Initially flavor was rich and full of oak and agave mixed but gave way to a harsh aftertaste. Overall disappointed, expected better.

not sure of the price

Vibrant nose of pineapples, citrus, agave and nuts. Clean feel to this one. First comes caramel and nuts, followed by baking spices, anise and pepper. Kissed with a lactic note. Nice agave presence - no overpowering oak at all. Lingering finish that invites another sip and another sip...

Vanilla on the nose, with taste of vanilla, oak, and citrus—all balanced nicely. Very good.

For a extra anejo I wasn't so impressed. Not bad but not my favorite.

Tasted some of JW's G4 XA . Such a delight from Felipe's private barrel. Great to have friends with connections.

Jerez, agave cocido, vainilla, poco picante, fuerte rico, final ligero

The aroma is interesting for an XA...it is not understated or discreet but does not have much if any barrel in the mix. Floral notes and agave predominate with a bit of an almost honeysuckle sweetness. Everything is nice and light. The flavor has a nice initial sweetness followed by baking spice and peppery heat. The finish has a nice lingering heat and is medium long. At the price ($63), this is an incredible value. 12/30/2016 - 4th Annual Xmas XA tasting.

Aroma: Interesting notes for an extra anejo. I get pine, mint, and it's also slightly floral. These are notes more traditionally seen with Blancos (at least for me). But, there is also hints of oak and caramel. Flavor: Slightly spicy but heavy in winter type notes. Caramel, clove, oak, and definitely one I could see myself sipping on a cold winter night. Finish: Very nicely balanced and hangs around for a while. Not overly strong and tons of flavor hangs around.

Gets better every time I try it. Gracias Felipe Camarena!

Added: BAT 2016 bottling of this juice is absolutely the highest proof XA I have tasted. Truly a one of a kind bottling of tequila made by Felipe Camarena. A well rounded extension of prior expressions, this 3 year aged extra añejo is very easy to drink. Never sweet or syrupy it has a nice feel in the mouth and reminds me very much of Ocho XA, which was also developed by Felipe C. in the early days of the brand. Get some. Might see some importation soon as G4 grows it's distribution in MX.
