Mijenta Añejo Gran Reserva Review
This high-end añejo is aged for around 18 months in, according to the brand, four “bespoke” casks — American white oak, French oak, acacia, and cherry. Packaged in a sleek, matte-finished bottle, the liquid is a bit more one-note than you’d hope for the price, but it’s a good note. A certain sort of mocha meets cooked agave, with less barrel influence than you might expect.
