No Buenos here, tastes like someone dumped coffee grounds into agave nectar. Pass.

No NOM version from the demo distillery outside Puerto Vallarta. Sweet like Cava de Oro or Adictivo. Sweet oak syrup. No agave.

not much to say. this is from a tourist ship claiming to be rare batch real deal tequila. but...Alas....it is made to appeal to the masses. the same NOM makes addictivo , which says it all. so it's good in the sense that it's sweet and most people won't find it harsh...but yo tequila folks like us .... not so much

This is as much as a tequila as Drambuie is a single malt Scotch. None the less, let's give it a go.
The nose is cola, root beer, tobacco, and brown sugar. For a dosed extra anejo, there is still a decent amount of ethonal present.
The taste is comically sweet and two dimension. Oak and maple syrup is all I'm getting.
The finish is short and sweet.
At $300 Canadian, I can not not recommend this enough.

Hard to find, heavy oak and toffee etc hides agave. Great if you are looking for the barrel affect and not the agave. Tried at the Cigar Factory in PV.

So far as I’m concerned, this barely deserves the title of tequila. So laden is it with additives and whatever else that it’s got more in common with a low-end bachelorette party liqueur. I doesn’t taste awful, but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, and for the price it’s a joke.

Tastes more like a brandy than a tequila.

Amazing Tequila, had it at the Distillery and price was a bit high @ $125. Now distribution in US and price here is over $300.
