Aroma/Taste: The aroma opens with wet cement and limestone, accompanied by citrus notes of lime and lemon, and undertones of stone fruit like cherry. The nose also reveals cooked agave and anise, with a subtle trace of dill. On the palate, the taste is characterized by sweet cooked agave, black tea, and the soft spice of white pepper. Finish: The finish is well balanced, featuring hints of fresh cut grass, cola, mint, sweet agave, and licorice. It's a very good finish with a lingering sweetness that hangs around for a while. Overall: When tasted blind, this tequila stands out as another well-balanced blanco in this tasting. It's enjoyable neat and would also be excellent for elevating a cocktail.

TMM Blind Tasting:2025 The aroma opens with a burst of lemon and lime citrus, joined by ripe pineapple, strawberry, spearmint, and a light floral lift. On the palate, cooked agave, butteriness, subtle berry and floral notes, with a touch of anise. The finish is gentle and soft, with lingering butter, faint citrus, floral tones, and a light thread of cooked agave.

From TMM Blind Panel: Aroma: classic agave bomb! Tasting high brix level agave, white sugar, mint, mineral, vanilla, Flavor: sweet agave bomb, mineral, white sugar, mint Pallet: medium/long, leaves sweetness on the tongue, clean, flavor stays a while, easy to drink. When I smelt this, I smiled. It’s all that I love in a tequila. It’s not fancy or flashy, it’s just delicious. I know they’re not re-inventing the wheel making it, but they are making good tequila the right way. YUM!

Blind TMM tasting: Nice earthy agave aromas that follow with similar flavors including some minty notes. Nice medium tingle that feels just slightly overproof. (Surprised I rated this so much higher than the high proof. Will need to revisit both).

Pleasant aroma. Some agave, pepper, fruit. Taste is also nice, finish is a bit light. I gave this only a 5 for value.

Slight agave on the nose, roast agave in the mouth with a fair amount of sweetness. Short buzzy finish.

Tried this for the first time at Grover’s event in Rhode Island at Condesa. A really nice nose of cinnamon, honey, caramel and oak. Tasty flavor of much of the same notes with some olive brine. A nice peppery finish with cooked agave. Definitely on the pricey end which brings it down a notch but overall, very enjoyable
