The latest addition to the Jose Cuervo line of tequilas is Jose Cuervo Black Medallion, a super-premium Tequila that will be available in stores this month. Cuervo Black is an añejo tequila aged in charred oak barrels. The new brand is designed to appeal to Cuervo drinkers as they, and their palates, age and mature. Cuervo Black is aged at least 12 months and the charring process on the barrels is designed to remove impurities and give the tequila a deeper oaky flavor. The new tequila sells for around $20.

This Tequila is quite nice. A bit milder than regular Jose. It has a slight carmel flavor. Good to have around as a good cheap Tequila. Works well for sipping or mixing.

I have tried a lot of tequilas - from cheaper tequilas such as Jose Cuervo and Patron to more expensive such as Herradura and Gran Centenario. Though I prefer the more expensive smoother tequilas, this one was a pleasant surprise. I recommend it as a good cheaper tequila.
