As close to perfect as you’re going to find. Agave is present from start to finish, balanced finish, long vegetal after taste.

Light spearmint and sage on the nose, very refreshing. Flavors of sweet agave, pepper, mint, and anise. The high proof doesn’t overpower up front, instead it leaves a pleasant vibration on the sides of my tongue for a long while, like a tuning fork. Really nice HP.

Very clean, minerality aroma agave comes through after it sits for a short time…. Slightly vegetal or herbal…agave definitely comes through on the tongue… hints of black pepper has a bite with a licorice taste finish goes to a soft finish.

Lot 6 -Cooked agave, slight floral, and licorice aromas. Nice agave and peppery finish. As they say, the complexity and beauty of Tequila lies in its process. It shows with this higher proof.

Found bottle at $54 in RI. Aroma: cooked roasted agave, grass, citrus zest, mineral, fruity, well water, nutmeg, spices, and bagasse. Palate: brine/salt, citrus, agave forward, black pepper, licorice, anise. Finish: nice, long, sweet, tons of agave from start to finish. Lote 5 (1039 31/8/2019)

Tahona - Lot6 Bottle 278 July 2020 - Big, bold, 100% agave experience. Excellent blanco. 10months resting in glass was well worth the wait! Bravo. Incredible value for the price.

Aroma : Lots of cooked agave and grassy, floral notes. Light fruits and baking spices are also present. Taste : Strong agave flavor with black pepper and more grassy notes. I also got some really nice, crisp licorice here as well. I don't even like licorice but it tastes so natural and clean here for some reason. Finish : Long and sweeter and than you might anticipate for a high proof. Very unique and clean tasting tequila, which is common for a high proof blanco like this one. Get a bottle of this whenever you can.

Lote #05 31/08/19. Tahona extraction. Nose: Vibrant minerals, balanced floral aromas, citrus zest, and rich agave fruitiness give this nosing a stellar start. There are herbal and vegetal notes - celery, freshly cut grass, dry straw. And that lovely funk. Cinnamon, nutmeg and star anise mingle in. Flavors: Finely ground black pepper, cinnamon and anise marry with the oily sweet agave. Some salinity, and there is an umami feel to the palate. This is round, balanced and displays no ethanol rowdiness. The finish brought a light smokey subtlety. Finish lasts forever. Well done.

Siembra Valles High Proof Blanco The nose is very pleasant. I detect green / vegetal agave and a light sweet floral / citrus note. I taste a vegetal agave, sweet corn and white pepper. The finish is sweet pepper but no alcohol burn. It’s very pleasant. I’m tempted to use it as a sipper and mixer.

This review is for Batch 5. This high proof, tahona-crushed juice has been rested in glass vessels for 5 months to let the flavors set up before bottling. This tequla has amazing depth. Its almost like its not using tequilana Weber azul (of course it is) because the flavor profile is off the chart. I had the pleasure of sipping this with the owner, David Suro at Cascahuin distillery in El Arenal. When it comes to sustainability and transparency, this is the benchmark. Wonderful juice with agave, pepper, herbs, asparagus and hay on the nose. Rich, deep minerality on rhe palate with agave forward flavor.

Black licorice

Papaya, Salted taffy, green Agave, fennel seed

Nice oily agave filled tequila. Sweet agave front with slightly spicy black pepper finish.

Lots of agave on the nose. Also fruity and baked cinnamon, which is inviting. Rich cooked agave flavor that fades to a licorice finish. The higher proof brings a layer of complexity that dances on your palate. Interesting and highly recommended.

Great agave presence on the nose, in the mouth and during the finish. I think this is a bit softer on the palate than some other 46% ABV blancos but it doesn't detract in any way from the tasting experience.

Lote 06 B#228 Wow this was fantastic. Huge aroma of agave and cooking herbs and slight lactic. Mineral, savory, heavy, long finished. Really enjoyed this. Love reading others reviews no bright crisp citrus anything about this for me!

Briny nose with a floral green bean flavor. White pepper on the finish. Solid high proof blanco but falls short of Cascahuin 48 and Tapatio 110.

The aroma is perfect. Lucid, light, all agave - almost reminds me of a clear pool of water. The liquid is delish, although very slightly pepperier than I like. Hot and slightly muddy - in all honestly, clearly a well-made spirit, but not my exact taste.

This is one well-made tequila. Absolutely delicious. Beautiful fresh aromas are far more noticeable than the alcohol. Not hot at all - especially given the higher bottling proof. If I didn't know that it was higher proof, I might not have known until a few sips in. Very full and mature agave flavor with a nice long finish. No bitterness but slightly sweet. Very highly recommend this one.

Siembra Valles High Proof Blannco ($60 @ Ferment and Still) is an excellent high proof blanco. Rich, bold, and worth a try. Also, read Jacod Skoff's review...he is spot on. Nose: Mild sweetness, yet rich in cooked agave.There is a brightness stemming from the well water minerality that rounds out with a blend of anise, black pepper, citrus and a hint of fruit. Just wonderful. Taste: Oily and punctuated by a briney/salt citrus. The bold black pepper, cooked agave, and anise shine brightly. The high proof really accentuate each of these elements without overpowering any one of them. Finish: Exceptionally long warmth that starts off sweet and is eventually over taken by pepper.

on the nose there is a blend of spices herbs and minerals dry sage, rosemary,the vegetal of the agave, crisp freshness as a mineral water. cinnamon and citrus. on the palate you get a burst of dry chiles blend with black pepper and cinnamon. beautiful chest heat. with that roasted agave, pineapple, grapefruit and sage.. im really enjoying this high proof.. so much minerality geeat mouth cover. the complexities are thru the roof... great experience.. the finish is medium/long. lingering herbal and spicy..

sweet agave, definitely some heat but not overpowering, a little pepper, some citrus, lots of flavor throughout. You can definitely feel the high proof but no where near what I was expecting. Very enjoyable blanco

Nice earthy flavor and finish. The high alcohol dominates a bit but dissipates as the bottle breathes.

Pretty vegetal and earty. Tasted alongside with Cascahuin 48, both are quite similar but unique.

Tasted this and immediately thought of the Plata 48 from cascahuin which has a very similar profile. Great for sipping the higher proof tequilas seem to have a greater depth of flavor and this is true with this selection as well.
