Nose: Fresh ripe fruit and various dried fruit. A hint of nuttiness and a dusty mineral presence. Flavors: Spicy entrance. A hint of bitters. Intensely sweet with tongue clinging viscosity. The finish brings new emphasis to the French oak nuances. Medium finish. Pretty straightforward sipper.

Lote 105 678/678 Nose: Fruity and floral. Cherry, dark berries and intensely ripe orchard fruit. A hint of dustiness. Flavor: Fruitiness follows perceived aromas. Salinity. Mellow vanilla/marzipan undertones. Pepper and spice “pop” provide contrasting elements and interest. The reposado, like the blanco is without obvious fault or flaws - and will offer an enjoyable sipper for the evening. A tiny bit sweet for my profile preferences. But this style will likely appeal to mainstream tastes.

Lote 101 060/738 I was gifted the blanco, repo and añejo for evaluation purposes. I do not know the msrp. The brand is making a comeback after 5 generations. Brand partner, Jose Luis Ruiz is the grandson of Arenal pioneer Don Roberto Ruiz Rosales. Nose: Fruit and citrus dominant: pear, pineapple, green apple and zest of lime. Slightly floral with background baking spices. Modestly robust aroma. Flavor: Nutty sweetness. Viscous and spicier than the aroma promised. Hint of bitters. A very easy sipper.

48% Lote No. L102 104/204, tasted on 11-4-24. Aroma: cooked agave, light acidity, light earthiness, hint of citrus, after 20 minutes in the glass the cooked agave note becomes a tad sweet, light green vegetal notes. Palate: confirms aromas perceived, good sweet & sour balance, light minerality. Light herbal notes through my retronasal. Finish is medium to medium long, light cooked agave with a hint of sweetness, light acidity with citrus notes and a hint of earthiness persists.
