surprises.\u00a0 While the blanco features a solid balance of spicy-sweet floral Highlands notes, the introduction of wood starts to change the juice in very interesting and unexpected ways.\u00a0 The repo adds a wood component that plays along nicely with the lip-numbing prowess of the blanco to bring a more sweet heat while introducing a bit of vegetal mushroom as a bottom note.\u00a0 The anejo, however, is where this mushroomy-vegetal flavor REALLY takes off and defines the flavor.\u00a0 <strong>Lippy<\/strong> is a huge fan of the Earthy, musty, \u201cforest-floor\u201d flavor grouping \u2013 so the anejo truly surprised and excited him!\u00a0 If you like a bit of mossy leaves in your sweet tequila this is the age for you!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span
