Long, peppery sweet finish with drying wood tannins, peat and minerality showing through. Smooth and classy with fine balance of sweetness and spice. Score - 92. www.tastings.com, April 1, 2005) |

TASTING NOTE: Porfidio Anejo Single Barrel is aged at least a year and is a great tequila ... Anejo is a deep gold color, clear, and sweet, boasting a big caramel type note that swallows up much of the tequila taste. Tequila snobs might crow that this note is a bit over the top, but truth be told, it is very tasty. Score -  1/2 (out of 5). (F.S. Fitzgerald, www.alcoholreviews.com) |
