Simply amazing. Super oily with tons of agave, citrus, pepper and vegetal and earthy notes. Amazing limited edition of you can get your hands on it.

Great nose with cooked agave, vegetal/herbal and citrus. Finish has vegetal notes with cooked agave and nice heat. Could easily go into the 90s on this rating. The price pint held me up a bit at just over $200

A blend of different Cascahuin techniques, it’s the most underground pit cooking that pokes through the most on this one—definitely carries a touch of smoke through. Sweet, earthy, mineral, and smoky.

This drinks really really well. The flavor definitely gives me a lot more than the nose. Delicious and beautifully executed. Took off a couple of points for price being a bit steep in today’s HP blanco market

Kind of a neck pour. I opened the bottle 3 days ago and gave a friend a 2 oz sample but didnt try it. So I'm trying it now... Nose: Grassy, minerality, cooked agave, anise, mint, earthy with a mild smokiness and a little alcohol Palate: sweet cooked agave, smokey, vegetal, mint, citrus and pepper Finish: warmth with citrus and pepper Legs are gorgeous PS tasted a little more with mac n cheese, and it paired really well!!!

I did a high-proof tasting at a bar in Puerto Vallarta. Aroma of cooked agave, butter, minerals, herbal and a hint of smoke. Flavor of cooked agave, smoke, herbal and vegetal. Medium-long finish and no high-proof burn.

Another winner by Chava, high proof, mint, and minerality at the same time. Balances out once it opens up

Minty, herbal, peppery with a strong agave flavor. A good high proof worthy of 1123.

Another great bottle from Chava and the team. I was able to get from the distillery so the price was right. If you’re paying crazy secondary prices then it will def change the value component but a delicious blanco as Chava reminds us how incredible he is.

Beautiful nose of agave. Floral, minerality, minty, jalapeño, green pepper. The best nose you can imagine. Beautiful palate of agave and then jalapeños and peppers. Beautiful mouthfeel can’t wait for a bottle of this.

On the nose, first impressions: cooked agave, nice minerality/an earthiness to this one, can smell the terroir, some herbal notes, maybe parsley/oregano. I will say it was somewhat muted on the nose for 49% to me. On the pallet: nice sweet cooked agave, lot of minerality, some baking spices/anise, some buttercream/caramel notes, nice medium finish, nice mouthfeel, not too thin, not to oily. Ultimately a quality 1123 product, very tasty but very also unique for them recently, maybe by design. Id easily keep it on the shelf for MSRP/secondary is a bit steep. Bottle opens up a lot after 24/48 hours, second sitting was much more enjoyable than first sitting.

So much petrichor, Smokey cooked agave upfront and finishes with light pepper and subtle citrus notes. Viscous mouthfeel and slight minerality. I was sad to finish this bottle.

Earthy, smell is a bit boozy, agave, mild pepper, nice! Had at La Pina on 4/19/2025 after the G4 tasting.

Aroma: light smoke Flavor: cooked agave Mouth feel: Full bodied Finish: long, gentle, light smoke Great tequila. Doesn’t drink like a high proof. Love how Chavez plays with the process to give us something new each year.

One of the best blancos around. Wonderfully complex flavors with a long finish. A little more smoke than normal

Nose: strong aroma, raw and cooked agave, light smokey, citrus, mineral, light mint. Palate: agave forward, mineral, vegetal, smokey, minty, anise, citrus, light butter. Finish: light medium. Overall, amazing blanco, from my favorite distillery! Wish it had a longer finish!!

A Chavas classic. I get a ton of minerality, savory barbecue smoke, chipotle peppers, and sweet cooked agave. It’s an amazing tequila, full stop. One of my favorites. If you can get this for less than $200, spring for it.

Another banger from Cascahuin. Great floral nose, hint of mint and anise. Flavor of sweet cooked agave, lemon zest, anise and a hint of smokiness. Definitely a rare and pricy bottle but the quality is certainly there. Very well done!

Aroma and flavour were excellent. That being said what set this wine apart was its body and finish. Oily and weighty leaving a lasting flavour. Price might be an indication of what to expect from well made signature tequilas

I purchase mine for $77 at the distillery and I’m hearing it’s close to $200 in the US. Wtf
