Lou does a video review of El Tequileño Platino and Reposado, in 90 seconds or less.
Nose: Truthfully, at $190 pesos, I did not have high expectations. But this nose is blowing my mind! It starts with sweet light colored fruit (pears, apples), and agave, accompanied by lively spiciness. There is an herbal note of dill, a little barnyard funk, straw and cut grass. A musty cellar note, not unpleasant. Flavor: Cinnamon, cracked black pepper and caramel to begin. Creamy vanilla and almond paste come next to complement the spicier elements. This is only 38% ABV, but carries itself like a heavyweight. Finally, a little of the funky barnyard agave aroma follows in the palate. Finish: The agave and spices linger forever!
