Rated blind: Something here is slightly off. the batch i am trying smells like smoky bacon (which i love, but not in a tequila.)

40% ABV Nose: Subtle raw oak and cinnamon. Fruitiness: pineapple, banana and citrus. Trace mint and earthiness. Floral. Flavor: Light oiliness, trace agave, and bold black pepper. Creamy caramel, vanilla and walnuts. An undercurrent of oak. Finish: Medium length finish with dominant pepper, barrel spice and sweetness. It has a small puff of heat at the end.

I lost that unique “Orendain” flavour with this, the oak treatment just diminishes that signature. It’s ok, I’m not in love with it.

the nose was a bit harsh with process all over the aroma. im drinking this at Agave in Hong Kong and the bottle is more than 2/3s finished so I imagine its oxidized a bit. back to the aroma in picking up vanilla and oak. the taste is better with smooth butterscotch showing through that dances into a sweet finish. I prefer the blanco a lot more (its one of my favorites), but this is very good as well.

Aroma: notes

One of my go to reposados I like this and the blanco a little more than the anejo by them

more of a scotch/whiskey

Nice strong smell. Lots of darker whisky,pepper taste. Not bad finish on the pallet.

Strong caramel Aroma. Nicely balanced between sweet and agave. Would recommend.

Aroma: Vanilla, pepper, agave Flavour: Vanilla, agave, pepper, nicely balanced Lingering sweet finish,. Good value, $13/oz

lots of agave but still sweet smooth very yummy

Caramel Saltiness minty

Smell of herbs and orange. Flavours of orange and vanilla are dominant. Smooth sipping with an easy finish. Unique flavour but my favourite, hence the low rating. I wouldn’t jump to recommend this.

Agave, vegetal, oak, caramel, spice

Very sweet

nose pleasant citrus alcohol taste citrus cinnamon raisin vanilla spice with warm peppery finish

Orange Vanilla Cinnamon

A blast of cinnamon, oak and medicinal in the aroma. Vanilla, white pepper and clove in the flavor. The finish is hot with some cooked agave, allspice and orange.

Will not recommend, drink or buy again.

Hint of a Smokey finish which i wasn’t sure I would love but it’s grew on me

Thick coating on the tongue with strong vanilla notes.

Smells sweet Tastes bitter and like cinnamon Lingering aftertaste

Vanilla, caramel notes Sweet taste and medium body

This has a really nice soft sweetness to it that’s kind of reminiscent of saltwater taffy. It’s got. Great finish that lingers nicely with hints of bubblegum.

Tastes like nougat and I love it!
