Profile is bitter and metallic, lacks complexity and flavors of raw agave and herbaceous

38% Mx. release Nose: Cinnamon, spearmint and minerals. A touch of vanilla and yeasty bread dough. Flavors: Mazapán with pepper punctuations. Background spiciness and some fruit (pear?). Nice mouth feel. A hint of sulfur, but not to a fault. A nice middle of the road, economy Blanco that I would love to see with more agave punch, and maybe at a higher ABV.

Lote TLJ01261118N @ 38 grados Elaborado el 10/01/19 En nariz destacan 2 capas. Una capa de aromas marcados a levadura de pan y germentación lenta que le dan un toque interesante. Por otro lado tiene una capa de aromas frescos que recuerdan a menta/mentol. En boca se sienten con carácter sus 38 grados, pero es simple en sabores. Un poco de más complejidad le vendría bien, tal vez a 40 grados sería interesante y un poco más complejo.

Mexican release @ 38%. 2007 Tax stamp. Nose: Dynamic aromas. Deep sweet agave, playing nicely with cherry, vanilla, floral and spice notes. The aroma of weathered cedar planks. Flavor: Pepper and barrel spice, oak and almond sweetness, make for a rich and bold impression. I found this “Dusty” at Nuestros Dulces for mere pesos.

Tasted at a distillery tour. Cooked agave and black pepper on the palate. Medium length finish that resolves to some sweetness. This tastes natural though lacks some character due to all stainless distillation.
