I’m picking up agave, cinnamon, and green apple on the nose. I’ve seen others mention lactic funk but I don’t get any of that. Tasting notes include agave, black pepper, nutmeg, honey, oak with a slight bitter twang and whisky finish. Enjoyable.

Mexico version 35% - meh.... want to try the US version

Note: This is the Mexican 35% ABV release. Nose: Pretty subtle nose. Light bourbon and cider aromas. Warm barrel spice, vanilla, powdered ginger and nutmeg. Freshly cut hay and wet soil. Flavor: Cinnamon, cloves, some bitter pepper notes and toasted filberts. This has some body to it despite the lower alcohol level. The sweet agave isn’t buried in barreling, but there is a decided bitterness that detracts. The Mexican Blanco and Repo versions are a different line of expressions from the 40% US version, which has different ownership.

A really well made Reposado. Great cooked agave and barrel notes

This is one funky Repo! You have to let it sit and open up. Floral, funky, oaky, very light citrus. The finish is funky. Overall I like it because it’s so different floral and funky. Hard to recommend something like this in my opinion.

Mild aromas of agave, baking spice & citrus.

Tepozan's Reposado is another wonderful spirit that follows the quality and value of their stellar Blanco ($50 @ Old Town). The repo is aged 4 months in American Bourbon barrels. Nose: Subtle. Cooked agave, whiskey bourbon barrels influences, cinammon and nutmeg baking spices upnfront. Black pepper and honey. Hints of vanilla and apple cider. Taste: Mild butteryness, a nice black pepper warmth, and a sweet honey mouthfeel. More substantial than the blanco with a nice vibrant profile. The usual suspects: Cooked agave, baking spices. Overall, a very smooth and balanced flavor profile. Finish: To quote Frank Galvez, " Not a long finish, but the kind that keeps you salivating for another sip.'

80 proof very lactic on the nose. very similar to the blanco expression (wich I really enjoyed). agave is strong and defined woodsy and aromatics of spice and fruits. flavor is intense of roasted agave and dehydrated papaya. green notes like fresh cut cactus. alot of bourbon flavor. oak and vanilla I really feel the pepper and cinnamon attacking my tounge and tonsils. nice throat and upper chest heat. loving the mouth coat. not a long finish, but the kind that keeps you salivating for another sip. I'm hoping for a high proof repo in the near future.
