Loma Azul Gran Reserva Tequila Anejo 750ml

I'm no tequila expert but to me it's all hype.

Loma Azul Gran Reserva Anejo tequila was highly touted by a friend of mine whose business it is to know tequila. After talking up the product for months, he finally convinced me to order some. I had been anticipating a smoother, subtle tasting sipping tequila but one whiff made me wary. One taste told me Loma Azul Gran Reserva Anejo wasn't much better than other tequilas in its price range and not as appealing as a couple of brands a bit more economically priced. This tequila does have some subtle nuances that are likely to be detected when sipped or gulped but those unique artifacts aren't worth the kerosene tinges or the burn.

Loma Azul Gran Reserva Anejo is a fine tequila for mixing. Enough agave nectar and lime will certainly neutralize much of the taste but doing so will eliminate its subtleties as well.

My friend, the tequila maven still raves about the stuff. I would not purchase the product again.
