Last week I attended a dinner at Tres Agaves in San Francisco with Gabriel and Guillermo Gonzalez of Chinaco Tequila. Tres Agaves is hosting monthly distillers' dinners with a different tequila brand each time.
REPO this is an old teardrop bottle that we've had for several years (2015ish?) RQ 11192, L2011= subtle nose that opens, agave, a little oak a little alcohol, fruit nuts and the funk again (soap, Bandaids?), some oak, barrel spices. Taste is white pepper butterscotch oak, barrel spices a little bitter on finish and that funky taste lingers
