Tasted at the Agave Bros “Battle of the Blancos” event

Nose: Lemon/lime soda, green banana, ripe pear, artichoke hearts, vanilla and spiciness. Agave forward with the scent of steamy crushed gravel after a rain shower on a hot day. Flavors: Flavors are less complex than the aromas. Cinnamon, robust pepper heat and sweetness. A little thin in the mouth, yet it has a certain roundness and pleasing agave presence. A hint of salinity. It finishes with slow burn pepper heat and a dash of fennel seed.

This would be a solid 88 to me, if not for the price tag and the low proof. Great nose, with aromas of fully cooked agave piñas, although it is cooked using the autoclave. You can appreciate here there small batch craftmanship. Some minerality and floral aromas come along the cooked agave. Aroma is just great. But then, I took the first sip and reminded me this was just so low proof (70). Nose and taste really overpromised but its finish and character underdelivered. I was missing some more punch to compliment this nice blanco. I would love to have this in an 80 or 92 proof versión. Great stuff for high pressure autoclave tequila. Will have it again.

Aroma of cooked agave, minerals and spiciness. Flavor of cooked agave, black pepper spiciness and minerals. Medium long finish with lingering spiciness. Loses on the high price.

Mineral and vegetal notes. Agave. Spicy white pepper notes, feel of wet cement , spicy and warm, high proof

Aromatic and smooth. Cool artisanal distillery.

Brought from Mexico. Purchased at El Buho. I liked the low proof even though I Am a high proof person. Not tremendously complex but consistent throughout. An easy sipper with a touch of pepper and cinnamon. I don't know how common this is in the US but I would purchase again.
