Añejo Tasting Lineup

Last week's añejo tasting was incredible - both in turnout and quality. We had set a limit of 20 people for this intimate evening, and quickly sold out. This was definitely one of our best events, and there were several distinguished bartenders, spirits consultants and wine industry people in addition to our usual knowledgeable and curious band of aficionados.

As to the juice itself- wow! I have to limit myself to a rundown of the names, because I am frantically preparing for seven weeks of tequila tours that begin tomorrow. Tough life, I know!

From left to right we have: Los Abuelos añejo, Tonalá 4-year añejo (not all 4 years are in the same barrel! Hence, an añejo. Took me a bit to figure that one out.), Don Julio 1942 añejo, Gran Centenario añejo, Herradura Selección Suprema extra-añejo and El Tesoro Paradiso extra-añejo.

Extra special thanks to Hoke Harden of Elixir Vitae, Patrick P., April S., Ingrid and everyone at Cha Taquería for making this the memorbale event that it was.

Stay tuned here, as well as on Facebook and on Twitter for real-time updates from Tequila Country. We will resume our tastings in May. ¡Salud!
