Nose: Powerful from the start. Crisp citrus jumps out. Ripe agave then shows up. Shortly followed by grass and herbs. Palate: Silky smooth with a great mouth feel and body. Generally, sweet, agave, with a floral element. Mild herbs of mint, dill, and bell pepper. Finish is pleasant and the spice grows as it settles. Nice pour. Somewhat simple but absolutely enjoyable

Aroma/Taste: This tequila has a blend of musty aromas, notably parmesan cheese and yeast, complemented by notes of dill, cooked agave, nutmeg, and cola. Upon tasting, there's a distinct white pepper heat at the tip of the tongue, with a hint of jalapeño. The palate offers layers of anise and black licorice, mingling with mint, and a rich sweetness from cooked agave. Finish: The initial spice gives way to a very balanced finish, leaving a medicinal maraschino cherry note lingering at the end. Overall: Tasted blind, I enjoyed this tequila. While medicinal notes on the tip of the tongue and finish might be slightly pronounced, they do not detract significantly from the experience. A second pour would be worthwhile to explore its evolution in the glass.

Nose: earth / faint agave/ light minerality / vegetal-hay/ hint of citrus / lemongrass / gardenia??/ alcohol Taste: sweet cooked agave / light pepper / pineapple/ melon / lime / licorice/ spearmint/ hint of cream soda Finish: very light viscous mouthfeel/ lingering light agave sweetness and a mild pepper contrast / clean bright minty finish This blanco has some nice mild sweetness and some earthy and peppery notes that are good but they seem to be at odds with each other. This tequila lacks balance; the tasting notes aren’t working together so much as they’re just on the field at the same time. The nose is quite weak and leaves a lot to be desired there.

Nose: agave cooked / vanilla/ oak / caramel/ earth / banana/ melon/ grapefruit/ lemongrass / tea / jasmine/ baking spice / chocolate/ toffee/ maple Taste: sweet cooked agave / vanilla/ caramel/ chocolate/ cinnamon/ banana/ melon / lime / orange peel/ peppermint/ anise / tea / baking spice / honey /maple Finish: watery wet - clean and smooth mouthfeel / delicious vanilla and sweet cooked agave notes linger on…with only minimal peppermint notes, this is a finish for those that like sweet. This anejo is thoroughly enjoyable. There are great barrel notes here, but the strength of the distillate in maintaining that sweet unified agave and vanilla flavor is the hero here. This is very good and for the price it’s very hard to beat.

Unique banana flavor, overall very bright and clean. Sweeter oak flavors including caramel and butterscotch emerge here while being balanced with notes of cooked agave and citrus; a touch floral.

Nose: agave sweet / earth / pepper /apple / citrus / alcohol Taste: agave / pepper/ cinnamon/ banana/ citrus/ alcohol Finish: low viscosity/ clean and bright finish/ alcohol This is a good mixer still strength. As a sipper it’s a bit harsh because of the high abv. High abv is one of my loves, but some brands get it right and you get max flavor and low alcohol burn…there’s good flavor, but the alcohol is a bit too high to enjoy as a sipper.
