My Tasting Notes: With a pale-to-yellowish golden color, Mi Viejo Anejo has intense
aromas of earthy, fruity, and floral scents.  Less apparent are moderate spice and mild
vanilla and caramel aromas.  Upon initial taste, the tequila has a medium, oily mouth
feel and is soft and mellow on the tip of the tongue.  Intense flavors of floral and earth
accents are followed by moderate agave, fruit, and spice flavors.  The finish consists of
a numbing alcohol intensity and a short-to-medium duration of flavor.

"The Reyneso family has been making tequila for three generations. At the insistence
of family and friends, the current heir, Mrs. Xochitl Reyneso, worked with Cavas Real
and El Viejito distillery to re-create her ancestors' legacy.

Tequila Mi Viejo is a full-bodied, 100-percent blue agave añejo, aged two years in
white oak barrels. The additional aging imbues the tequila with appreciable depth and
character. While production of Tequila Mi Viejo is limited, the search is worth the effort.
It is imported by the Trading Company of the Americas of Gig Harbor, Wash."

The neck tag on this bottle reads: "Tequila Mi Viejo 100% our pride, weber blue agave
variety.

Matured 9 to 10 years in the sun and land of the best tequila region.

We produced our tequila with the same care as we have done for the last sixty years
using a totally home style process.

The agave is slowly baked and mushed with a millstone.

Then it is aged in white oak barrels in which it settles for two long years in cool cellars
at the ideal temperature of Atotonlico, Jalisco, Mexico.

The result is Tequila Mi Viejo.

Delightful premium quality tequila for connoisseurs, it's our pride.
