2014 single barrel #25 at 43.2ABV The nose alone is amazing, the length and finish is amazing. This is a once in a life time XA. A unicorn for sure. Thank you Lou for sharing

wish we had more of this. finished it off awhile ago. I don't have my tasting notes, but I know how much I loved it when I drank it 8-9 yrs ago.

I typically love Siembra Azul. This one is good but not up to par with many of the others I have had from this brand Nose does have cooked agave along with oak and vanilla. The whiskey influence from the barrel is there along with caramel and cinnamon. I also get a hint of chocolate. On the palate, the initial note is nice and sweet. I get more oak than on the nose and vanilla I get whiskey and barrel spices. This one doesn’t finish well to me. I get a lot of alcohol for a 40 proof. Fortunately, it stays dormant until you have swallowed. I tasted some really good Anejos today and thought this might match them. Yes, I’d drink it again but I won’t pick it over several others in this category

Nose: vanilla/ caramel/ sweet agave cooked / butter / banana / hint of citrus / lime / spearmint/ tea / orange blossom/ nutmeg/ chocolate/ Taste: sweet agave cooked / vanilla/ caramel/ pepper / banana/ lime / orange peel / spearmint/ bell pepper/ nutmeg/ jalapeno/ chocolate / molasses Finish: very low viscosity mouthfeel/ lingering pepper notes prevail after a rapid dissipation of sweet agave / vanilla/ and peppermint. Spicy till the last swallow. This anejo has many of the signature azul highland pepper notes. The sweetness is quite enjoyable but it steps aside quickly in the light of the predominant pepper notes. There is a touch of mintiness, but the heavy spice notes are in charge here until the last swallow.

Nose of cooked agave and citrus. Grapefruit is the prominent citrus. This is earthy yet still vibrant. I get a touch of mint on the nose. The taste is very nice. First is agave and then I get anise. Plenty of citrus on the palate along with other fruits. It is earthy and tastes of minerals. The finish is clean and lingers for only a short time. Viscosity is medium and feels nice in the mouth. I have dropped this a point on value because many other 70 Blancos I like more. Overall, I like this one and would recommend it.

Nose: vanilla and sweet agave cooked with a harmoniously blended aroma / caramel/ butter / hint of melon / pear / pineapple/ grapefruit/ lime / lemongrass/ anise/ flowers/ baking spices / chocolate/ molasses / hazelnut / cream soda Taste: the most harmonious and perfectly unified flavors I’ve ever had / sweet agave cooked / cinnamon/ pepper / vanilla/ butter/ caramel/ banana/ cherry/ pineapple/ melon / hints of lime snd grapefruit / licorice/ spearmint/ tea / baking spice / nutmeg/ chocolate/molasses/ cream soda Finish: a very slight viscous mouthfeel/ unified taste and flavor balance at the top of the game/ cool water effect/ beautiful harmonious taste snd finish…makes the whole experience fantastic. There’s some very bold flavors at 40% abv, but everything feels and tastes great without alcohol greatly affecting any of the flavors or aromas. There’s a lingering sweet agave and vanilla unified flavor….soo good!! This joven is simply special. This expression called Lidia, is named after David Suro’s mother…and there’s an image of her face on the label. Would you dare put out a product that had your mother’s face on it and not make sure it was perfect? I can say he had no worries about his mom being the name and face of that expression….he knew he had nothing to stress about. It’s that good. This tequila is absolutely delicious on a different scale.
