La Pulga Tequila Añejo Review
This añejo is aged for 18–22 months in ex-American oak barrels and, indeed, it has a bourbon-y quality to it. Though, not completely. There is still roasted agave to be found, along with plenty of baking spices, and hints of dark fruits as well. In a way, it tastes like a sort of tequila Manhattan topped with a brandied cherry. Quite enjoyable.
