Fairly neutral in the nose, definitely doesn’t give away its agave nature. Loads of cinnamon, vanilla and agave going on, has a sharp decline on the finish that leads to a mellow aftertaste.

Agave, mint, brine and pepper aromas with rich similar taste. Even at 50 proof it’s highly drinkable, with a long peppery finish.

Nose is wet grass and slight pear. Immediate explosion of agave, black pepper and some brine. Bright and bold, complex and long finish. It’s got obvious heat given the high proof, But very sophisticated.

Initially tasted at De La O in Guadalajara Centro. Great venue, great tequila, and great folks at Scarlet’s sorpresa de cumpleaños! Nose: Olives, smoke, cellar mustiness, and black pepper. Flavor: Spicy and oily. Licorice, cinnamon, roasted nuts and some subtle herbal notes. Wonderful caramelized, sweet agave. Balanced and nuanced finish. The 100 proof packs a pleasant punch.

Baked Agave, pineapple, pink peppercorn

While thin, it is nice with caramelized agave and cooked fruit tones. A touch bitter in the finish, but can let that slide. Nice numbingness.

Cooked agave with a touch if smoke on the nose. Light entry, thin viscosity, mildly bitter. Develops nicely, moderately complex, with the bitterness turning grassy and green. Very small amount of peppery spice in the finish with a hint vinegary tang. This one improves with a tiny bit of added water.

Blind rated. Tons of awesome cooked agave in the nose, similar to #2, but with less alcohol and sweeter. Some pepper and citrus. A really great aroma! This could probably be Tapatio, the aroma recalls La Alteña. In the palate again a lot of agave, pepper and citrus. Little sweetness mixed with a nice spice burn. Well balanced and velvety, with a long agave finish. Really an excellent blanco over-proof. Definitely my fav of the samples

raw agave, fruital, mango

The cooked agave comes through on the nose, with fruit and sweetness. Is crisp and clean. The flavor has some sweetness, cooked agave, with some light anise flavor. Good finish with pepper and spice but could be longer.

From a blind tasting. Much more sophisticated and balanced than #3. This blanco has more complexity of flavor with roast agave, white pepper in the mouth and some hints of mint on the nose.

Love the high proof blanco's.

The aroma is very complex. There are notes of cinnamon, raw agave, clay, and a subtle hint of banana. The flavor is strong and full of cinnamon and agave. The high proof isn't overwhelming. In fact, it's incredibly balanced. Lots of flavor without it being too hot. It finishes incredibly smooth.

Vegetal/agave aroma upfront with black pepper and dirt. Flavor is incredibly rich and almost chewy. Cinnamon-driven heat upfront with a strong secondary flavor of fruit (cherries, apple???). The finish is long and holds a nice heat.

Fantastic aroma of cinnamon, brine, and olive. Definitely agave-forward flavor. Although it is high proof, it's easy to drink. Feels super oily in the mouth. What a great example of a how a high-proof tequila can really shine.

Incredibly rounded/viscous for a 100 proof tequila. Didn’t get much on the nose, some agave notes, but lots of olive and agave notes on the tongue and some citrus and pepper. Amazed how easy it is to drink and the agave and olive flavors linger. Very enjoyable!

Be advised not for a novice tequila drinker. This is amazing with a nice piece of ice. One of my favorite to have one ice

Best when on rocks. Can have a punch you in the mouth feeling when warm BUT flavor is amazing

peppery, clean, agave

Amazing. First glass was delicious, I expected it to blow my head off but there was minimal heat and no burn. The second glass seemed to turn the dial up, the flavours were much more intense and the heat cranked up. Delicious but two glasses were enough.

A great version of a still strengt. The owner Sergio's favorite!

Tasted blind at Cantina De La O in GDL. Has the sweetness of Altos pinas, but the process and water that of El Valle. You can tell its high proof right away. That gives way to herbs, mint and citrus. Its more earthy than sweet, almost savory. Tongue feels oily with agave present with that of tarragon and thyme. I would love this blanco with a steak, actually. I enjoyed this a lot.

Grassy, pepper, agave all over the nose. Slightly sweet aroma. Flavour is clean with a long warm finish, the main notes of the nose are well represented on the finish.

strong spicy nose, lots of pepper, not too much agave on the nose, made eyes water a bit more agave on palate fuego finish

Very smooth given the high alcohol content. I drink it neat with one or two ice cubes. Additionally, I like the no additives approach.
