Sometimes 40% alcohol (80-proof) just isn’t enough. I say this not because of any need to hurry up and get a fast buzz on, but rather that a quality tequila made at 100 proof (50% alcohol) can be more true to the real nature of tequila than one that is at
There are two words that immediately come to mind when tasting the lineup of Dulce Vida tequilas: fuerte (strong) and unique.
Nose is pretty good. I get agave, oak, vanilla and caramel as one might expect. I good amount of banana. Alcohol on the nose. Taste is not as good as the nose. I get agave and barrel notes. I get a good amount of whiskey and it isn’t a whiskey taste that I care for. Finish is fine. I’d drink it again but won’t be buying it. I got it in a sample swap. This is why I like trading with fellow tequileros so I know where to invest my money.
