Critics Reviews A veteran tequila reviewer for Tequila Matchmaker praised the 5-year expression as “rich and rounded on the nose, with butter, caramel and soft vanilla, yet the agave remains remarkably present even after five years in barrel.” The same reviewer noted the palate as “medium-viscosity, oak-gripped, mineral and orange-zest driven,” calling it “a rare Extra Añejo that still feels like an agave spirit first.” A professional tasting panel referenced by WHWC’s expert review team highlighted “maple, leather, mild smoke, fruit and spice on the nose, with caramel, light chocolate and mild cinnamon on the palate,” ultimately calling it “a smooth, buttery Extra Añejo with admirable balance.” These professional evaluations reinforce Terralta 5 Year’s reputation as one of the most agave-faithful and well-constructed Extra Añejo tequilas in its class.
