The <strong>blanco<\/strong> also features a pleasing oily mouth that fades into a hint of anise and mint on the finish.\u00a0 The <strong>reposado<\/strong> introduces a slather of sweet oak that is at once buttery with a coconut specter in the back of the mouth.\u00a0 While the oak is very up-front in the taste, the alcohol spike is always present and unbelievably doesn\u2019t affect the total balance of the product!\u00a0 The <strong>anejo<\/strong> brings the oak flavor way down in the \u201cmix\u201d, and turns up the volume on a \u201cbrown\u201d and pleasing bottom-end to the flavor.\u00a0 Look for this <strong>anejo<\/strong> to be a nice companion through a long tasting session as its overall balance and flavor profile doesn\u2019t get boring or oppressive over the long haul.\u00a0 This is a VERY reasonably-priced brand, and you should absolutely be procuring a bottle of each age for you drinking collection!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><span
