A week or so ago I attended the San Francisco launch event for Don Roberto tequila, hosted by Junior Merino at Cantina. Don Roberto is made by the Orendain family in the lowlands of Jalisco, Mexico in the town of Tequila, at the La Purisima distillery.
green agave, astringent, bitter. perfect example of diffuser made tequila. no character, no complexity, no depth of flavor. Note: this was before they switched to stone/brick oven. Will reevaluate when the new version is available
