Another local store's barrel pick. Again, expected blandness, but exceeded expectations. Nice solid repo for about 35 bucks.
Local single barrel store pick. I expected it to be crap, but it wasn't bad at all. Not very complex, but very drinkable at a decent price.
The best of the early Corazon Expresiones line. This 2013 1st coveted release has plenty going for it and is now a sought after treasure bottle. Once it breathes and opens up, that's when it becomes a tasty treat. Great influence from it's time spent in the RVW barrel. Agave, cinnamon, slightly oaky, vanilla, nutty, nutmeg, spices... real treat if you can find it.
NOM 1440. 2003 Arcella import. I don't get the low score on this one. There's a " medium" neck then the older coveted "Long" neck. this long neck añejo is solid AF. I heard these añejos have metal label Espolon juice. Cooked agave, cinnamon, butterscotch, banana Gerber pudding... Damn tasty stuff!
