All, General notes:
Resposado Tequilas had a stronger flavor, and it seemed more difficult to get some of the subtleties (is that a word?) Resposado refers to the aging process, and Resposado normally ages in terms of days
the Anejo Tequilas were much smoother, in particular the Corazon Tequila (a surprise Tequila) and the Don Julio, were big winners, the original smell was not as rough, and the flavors of the tequila was able to come through. Corazon seemed to have a bit of a spice to it probably made from the Canadian Oak barrels.
As a normal wine taster, I used some techniques from wine tasting, the smelling of aroma was difficult since the smell is quite strong. however the very small tastes did help.
We ended up clearing our palates with lime flavored tortilla chips, and a good time was had by all.
