Tequila La Piñata Anejo

Tequila La Piñata Anejo is 100% Agave, and aged for 24 months in small batches to insure a unique and distinctive flavor. Comparable to some of the world’s finest cognacs, Tequila La Piñata Anejo is best enjoyed in a Tequila snifter.

La Pinata's passion for 100% Agave Tequila is inspired by their family roots in Jalisco. Their Tequila is produced from the ripest, hand harvested Agave from Amatitan, Jalisco, double distilled to ensure the natural essence of the Agave.

Tequila La Piñata is produced in honor of Francisco Javier Guzman, founder of La Piñata, and the cornerstone of the Guzman Pelayo family.

I always like to start out with a blanco before I head to the rest of a line. But I couldn't do that with this line. No problemo. A memorable Anejo, tasted out of a snifter.

Aroma: A nice berry/woody aroma.
Initial Taste: A semi oily mouth feel. A sweet entry with no bitterness. Initial tatse of fruit.
Body: A very nice agave body full of depth. Compliments of wood, earth, fruit, and smoke.
Finish: A pleasant slightly heated finish of woody agave.
