On the nose, harsh and medicinal, a little agave and maybe pepper. On the palate, very thin, astringent. Not quite sour but there’s something like that there. Has a weird funk to it. A bit of agave, some pepper, maybe lemon? Overall, not good. Lunazul is not my favorite but if you absolutely must spend less than $20, that’s a much better option.

Absolutely horrible and made with a diffuser. At one time at a different Distillery, this was a well made bargain tequila.. but no more

Definitely one for cocktails you don’t care about. Good value but diffuser based.

Lote: 17AB107E21 06/21/21. 08:11 D.O.P. 375ml Very weak nose. Some agave (mostly raw) and alcohol. Not much to grab you. Flavor hits with alcohol upfront with a bitter/sourness that covers the tongue. Some mint and raw agave. Peppery medium finish that has no complexity. I would say, based on flavor, use it as a mixer, but the fact it is a diffuser product I would avoid.

Lots of pepper very little agave. Artificial flavors are present and some bitterness and alcohol. Besides the price there is little reason to drink this.
