$70 in San Francisco Aroma: 23 but could be convinced to go 24 Sweet cooked agave with plenty of ripe juicy fruit Palate: 28 Silky velvet mouth feel with plenty of heft. Vegetal sweet cooked agave with a pleasant olive note. Front palate is vegetal which then turns sweet into the mid palate and backends up spice. Finish: 23 Great length, density and depth. Value: 8 For $70 in San Francisco, I bought 3 bottles and could not be more happy with it. Strong value for this quality. I was tempted to increase to a 9 but kept it at a strong 8

Vegetal grass on the nose. Nice creamy palate and finish. Not bad but prefer Lote 1

Tasting Lot 3 that a friend bought at the distillery. Nice, oily legs in the glass. Aroma of cooked agave is at the forefront. Followed by citrus, herbal, vegetal and anise. At 45% ABV, I thought I might get alcohol, but no. Flavor of cooked agave, butter, citrus, vegetal and herbal. Pleasant, long finish.

Lote 3 is very special to us because we were at the distillery the day it was bottled, the day of the eclipse, Apr 8, 2024. Lote 3 has more barrel spice and Lote 1 has more anise. Both are really good. Lote 1 slightly edging out Lote 3 for me. Felipe always does it right!

So for me, lot 3, is extremely good. I am tasting a neck crack so chances are I will update this later. I prefer lot 2 as its flavors come out a little more and there is less alcohol on the nose and palate. This has a great nose of agave and pepper. I find this herbal with a hint of brine and olive. Taste is sweet agave followed by black pepper. Lots of minerality. It is vegetal and finishes with alcohol. I really think this will gain a point or two after a few weeks.

In addition to the signatura G4 cooked agave, this Lot 3 Madera is packed with minerality, grass, fruit, lots of natural sweetness and a touch of pepper. Update: I poured a second glass which tastes even better! In this, strong vegetal notes dominated aroma and early sips. It’s so sweet and complex. Absolutely delicious!

LOTE 3 and another banger from G4! N- Huge blast of agave and minerals up front. Some lemon, and some herbal and grassy notes as well T- Cooked agave, brine, black pepper, herbs. Hardly any alcohol heat considering the higher proofing. MF- Oily F- Medium in length and damn near perfect V- $70 in Michigan makes this an excellent value considering the quality of this juice

On the nose I was hit with an agave bomb, citrus fruit, vegetal notes(peppers), subtle mint and anise(earthy tones emerged after letting it rest). Upon first sip I immediately was bombarded by the agave bomb detected on the nose followed by minerals, anise, jalapeño, black pepper, grass and some spice. The palate is continuously evolving the more I taste, I’m sure there will be more notes to come. The length and depth of the finish on this expression is nothing short of extraordinary. This is, without a doubt, my favorite tequila that I’ve tasted from El Pandillo.

The aroma presents a faint cashew nuttiness, initially searing with ethyl tones that mellow significantly by the third night allows the delicious scents of petrichor, wood, grassy herbal characteristics, and slight tangy citrus tones to blend harmoniously. Letting it sit in the glass reveals an identifiable cooked agave prune note. On the palate, the flavor is warm and inviting. Soft nuttiness and cooked agave with subtle prune and raisin notes combine with a delicious buttery toast, cinnamon, and peppermint. Light lemon citrus, a flash of baked sweet potato, plum, minerality, fresh cut pencil shavings, black pepper, and palatable brine is quite flavorful. The finish is marked by a soft earthy exit, with a deliciously clinging buttery texture and brine. Faint minerality and the ghostly presence of grassiness rise towards the dying finale.

The nose is heavily influenced with mineral, alpine aromas, and cooked agave mildly herbaceous with hints of mint and thyme. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, very creamy, oily, buttery taste with some floral and vegetal traces. Finish: Wow! Cooked agave, pine, white pepper, black pepper, anise and possibly honeydew on the finish. All the while, the sweetness is very prevalent here and let's the spirit down soft and gently.

Another delicious one from G4. Strong complex aroma. Earthy/hay/wood, vegetal, peppery, agave. Flavor is agave forward with a nice looong peppery finish. A nice lingering earthy/agave aftertaste. Highly recommend.

Aroma: pure cooked agave, white & black pepper, earthy, but vegetal - almost herbaceous with a faint nutty/woody smell. A touch of minerality, but not akin to the blanco expression. Such a complex nose. May be the best aroma I’ve rated. Flavor: agave bomb, good amount of light peppery notes (not overpowering), earthy and vegetal. The flavor matches the nose but the pepper really shines through and the minerality takes a back seat. Still a bit of a soft woody taste which is nice. Balanced mouth feel and a nice long finish. The heat comes through but isn’t overpowering - perfect balance of punchy flavors but not overpowering the agave. I had this bottle tucked away for a special occasion. I’m over halfway through the bottle but haven’t rated it. I remember now why I love this expression so much. It’s a beautiful take on their incredible blanco. It’s complex but approachable. A pure expression of agave. Nice, light heat, packed full of flavor yet nuanced for G4 - they’ve really managed to create something unique. Highly recommend if you can find it.

Love the richness of this Blanco. Very agave forward with a nice bite. Subtle minerality with some fruity notes. Grabbed an extra bottle at $69

Been trying to get my hands on any form for Madera for quite some time now. This is the 2024 Lot #3 On the nose, cooked agave is there but with very crisp and clean presence. Almost indescribable. Minerality for the nose is also present with some vegetal undertones to close out. Palate is simply wonderful. Again, clean crisp cooked agave that I’ve rarely experienced across all my tastings/reviews. A bit of oiliness on the mouth feel which is nice. Nice peppery finish.

Aroma: Sweet agave, pepper, & citrus Taste: Sweet sweet agave, pepper, citrus, & cinnamon Finish: long lasting with minerals & grass Cost $70 Great premium blanco at a reasonable price. I will be buying more bottles.

Just superb. Not much else to say. Just about the best sipping blanco you can get your hands on. Abundantly sweet cooked agave mixed with pepper, minerals, and herb (I’m detecting mint?). Some citrus in the finish. Makes for a uniquely great sipping experience. 1579 produces some excellent products and this is one of their very best. Priced slightly above some other premium blancos but who cares. It’s absolutely worth the $70-$80 tag.

Color is beautiful- very clear and clean looking. Aroma is agave forward with anise, pepper, wet grass, wet gravel road beside a hay field. Second tasting after I went and bought a bottle. The aroma is truly incredible. It radiates wet cooked agave- minerality is spot on- and a peppery oakiness is evident. On the palate it’s magic. Agave forward with a wet earthiness that shines with all the flavors of the wonderful outdoors. Pepper is evident that has a very nice spiciness that lingers. Second review- the palate is one that I am very happy to be enjoying again. It is close to chewing on wet agave fibers and licking a mineral rock in a hayfield after a good rain. Amazing! Finish is amazing- agave lingers, with a numbing pepper and vegetal. One of my favorite blancos- great job G4. This is my favorite Blanco ever!
