Lote 03 | Nose: cooked agave / earth / minerals / vegetal / herbal / melon / banana/ malolactic/ bell pepper/ oregano Taste: sweet cooked agave / vanilla/ pepper/ cinnamon/ banana/ pineapple/ melon / touch of orange peel/ lemongrass/ peppermint/ nutmeg/ honey / cream soda/ Finish: very slight viscous mouthfeel that remains clean and crisp/ river water end notes/ lingering hint of minty freshness This still strength is 50 abv, but drinks like a much lower alcohol content tequila. The tastes are all very bold (as expected with a higher proof) but the harmony and balance are there….no one taste taking the lead. The earthy, mineral, vegetal notes may not be for everyone. The malolactic funk smell is also not something everyone cares for.
Lote 02 | Nose: RICH caramelized agave and brown sugar from the start. Buttery vanilla with hints of mixed nuts. Mild Fruit. Does not smell like 50% abv in a great way. Palate: Nice mouth feel with plenty of depth. Same as the nose, RICH caramelized agave and sugar. Finish goes on and on. Imagine a rich agave buttery pastry with caramelized sugar drizzled on top. Heck of a pour!
Lote 03 | Strong cooked agave on the nose and palette. The cooked agave shines with hints of anise, cinnamon, citrus and minerals. A long oily finish. At $90 dollars a bit pricey
Lote 03 | Beautiful sweet agave on the nose. I get citrus with some lime and minerals. A touch of mint and some black pepper. The taste if foremost cooked agave followed by black pepper minerals and a touch of alcohol heat. I get more citrus and mint on the nose than taste. I do get a long alcohol finish. This is a very good HP and one that I can easily recommend.
Nose: Cooked agave layered charcoal and smoke with subtle hints of olive Flavor: Great traditional agave with a smooth buttery feel, deep charred caramel and butterscotch, vanilla and oak presence, and herbal notes of basil and black tea
Lote 02 | Lote 02 S. This blanco sips very smoothly for 50 ABV. I got very little heat after I let it open up for 20 minutes or so. This has a beautiful aroma of cooked agave and minerals, with hints of mint. The flavor has a lot of complexity and the finish is long and lovely.
A punch in the face of minerality on the nose. Soil, wet stone, roots Stone, apricot, some honey A lovely finish, warm, oily mouthfeel, sits in the stomach
Lote 01 | Cooked agave followed by pepper, citrus, and anis. Light minerality. Excellent
Lote 01 | Wow! Great stuff. We love all things Cascahuín in our house. This is great and different than Plata 48. Aroma is Amazing! Typical Blanco from 1123 with mineral notes (wet cement) and sweet agave. But this Wild Common also has some bright fruit on the aroma—strawberries, maybe mango. There’s a creaminess that plata 48 doesn’t have. Taste and finish are excellent. This is one of the best and most fun blancos to sip.
Lote 02 | On the nose, so much in your face agave. Minerals. Citrus rind, grapefruit. Herbal. Very good. On the palate, that agave punch really comes through. A touch more vegetal than the lot 1, but also warmer. A bit of cinnamon, some ripe fruit but not overripe funk. I’m really torn between this and lot 1. The original had a little bit of a better nose for me, bur I think I prefer the taste on this second lot. Either way, this is exceptional. Truly amazing craftsmanship. King of the valle for me.
LOTE 2 - S 321 020123 50%ABV Initial nasal impact is warming and fruity. Slight prickle (especially for 50%abv). Wow. So clean. Cooked agave, melon, fresh water ice out of a stream, citrus, fruit. Great viscosity on the mouthfeel, very buttery with generous alcohol. Woah. This is zero to 60 in 3.2 seconds. Absolute pinball game on the flavor. Caramelized cooked agave, if a jalapeno pepper and a fresh fennel bulb had a baby, incredible honeydew melon coolness - especially on the retro nasal, pepper, honey and butter. Yes butter. Flavor lasts all day long. Super long finish (why I love still strength) highlights the jalapeno/fennel, honey and melon. This is sitar music and Rammstein combined in every sip. Chava is a genius
LOTE270 050822 RESTED 10 MINUTES N- Whoa. an initial blast of alcohol but then poof it's gone. Black pepper, agave, olive, stewed fruit, briny minerality, a touch floral. T- Peppery heat, quickly dissipating alcohol, jalapeno, black pepper, dill, mint, overripe mango, and a little funk. So good and dangerous at 100 proof. MF- Medium which is impressive for the proof F- Long lasting mango sweetness and some delicious black pepper heat V- This was a gift from a friend and it's not available in Michigan but if I purchased online I'd still occasionally pay for this treat. The regular Blanco is great and this version is even better!
Much like smelling salts can "snap you to", this Lote 1 is a punch to the taste buds. Raw agave on the tongue, black pepper, anise, minerals, and heat (in a great way). This would be great if you're willing to mix in a cocktail, hard to justify at the price. This is an amazing tequila
Lote 02 | Lote 2-S Nose: A big assault of agave. Minerals, grapefruit rind and a light juniper berry aroma. A handful of Italian herbs and mintiness. Flavor: Oily, peppery and enticing. Melting brown sugar dusted with cinnamon. Citrus and ripe mango, and of course big bold agave. Coats the tongue with a buttery, long fading finish.
Lote 02 | Licorice, graham cracker, sea foam
Lote 02 | Long, warm, complex. Lote 2 / Exceptional tequila.
Great high proof Blanco! Taste/aroma of agave, minerals, mint, citrus with light pepper. Nice warm finish, you wouldn't know it's 100 proof!
Lote 01 | Beautiful nose and palate. Nice finish. A well rounded blanco.
Lot 1
My first venture into Wild Common, and what an adventure it is. Good lord, the nose is gorgeous. Agave for days, very noticeable minerality. There’s a light brininess, and a creamy citrus note, very orange peel for me. So fruity, and shockingly little ethanol for the proof. The palate is a real treat. One of those rare high proofs that you can tell is a high proof more because of the intense flavor than the alcohol. So much agave and minerals. Very clear white pepper, citrus, and tropical fruit. I would say that this is a little bit of a splurge bottle at $80+, but I’m still going to give it 5/10 on score because it’s really a step above. I’m not a normally a huge fan of the Cascahuin flavor profile, but this is exquisite. This is the Cascahuin I’ve been looking for. I ended up picking an entire case, because it really is that damn good. Edit: I am revising my review. Bumping this up to 6/10 on value and 30/30 on flavor. This is, to me, the best blanco currently in production. I haven’t had anything that beats it, and I keep going right back to it. When I’m in my blanco phase, this does it. When I’m in a repo/añejo phase, this still is amazing. I take a month off of drinking, and this is what I want to come back to. Honest to God, this is my favorite tequila. I’m sorry Tapatio 110, but you’ve finally been unseated.
Not as approachable on the nose as the Blanco but damn near perfect on the palette. Balanced flavour and oily, I fucking love this Tequila.
Enjoy high proofs a little more than lower abv's because they generally impart deeper richer flavors and this is no exception. This is fruity and peppery with lots of agave. Really good.
tasted at LATF 9/22 Need to revisit and add notes march 7, 2023 tasted with holly the_tequila_lilly and marissa tequilaencyclopedia Still strength Lote 1 50% abv Amazing for a h.p. didn't get a lot of alcohol. agave still coming thru, fruit anise. Very well balanced. some pepper on end and a warm heat I increased my rating from 88 to 90 excellent value at $80
One of the 3 best blancos I’ve ever had. Absolute agave bomb. Tons of natural sweetness. Incredible balance.
