Vegetal grass on the nose. Nice creamy palate and finish. Not bad but prefer Lote 1

Tasting Lot 3 that a friend bought at the distillery. Nice, oily legs in the glass. Aroma of cooked agave is at the forefront. Followed by citrus, herbal, vegetal and anise. At 45% ABV, I thought I might get alcohol, but no. Flavor of cooked agave, butter, citrus, vegetal and herbal. Pleasant, long finish.

Lote 3 is very special to us because we were at the distillery the day it was bottled, the day of the eclipse, Apr 8, 2024. Lote 3 has more barrel spice and Lote 1 has more anise. Both are really good. Lote 1 slightly edging out Lote 3 for me. Felipe always does it right!

So for me, lot 3, is extremely good. I am tasting a neck crack so chances are I will update this later. I prefer lot 2 as its flavors come out a little more and there is less alcohol on the nose and palate. This has a great nose of agave and pepper. I find this herbal with a hint of brine and olive. Taste is sweet agave followed by black pepper. Lots of minerality. It is vegetal and finishes with alcohol. I really think this will gain a point or two after a few weeks.

In addition to the signatura G4 cooked agave, this Lot 3 Madera is packed with minerality, grass, fruit, lots of natural sweetness and a touch of pepper. Update: I poured a second glass which tastes even better! In this, strong vegetal notes dominated aroma and early sips. It’s so sweet and complex. Absolutely delicious!

LOTE 3 and another banger from G4! N- Huge blast of agave and minerals up front. Some lemon, and some herbal and grassy notes as well T- Cooked agave, brine, black pepper, herbs. Hardly any alcohol heat considering the higher proofing. MF- Oily F- Medium in length and damn near perfect V- $70 in Michigan makes this an excellent value considering the quality of this juice

Another great release. Agave, minerals, citrus, vegetal, alcohol, grass and more. It literally has it all!

Nose: cooked agave, citrus, black pepper, floral, mint, earthy, pine, and sweetness Flavor: cooked agave, black pepper, earthy, citrus, spice, and creamy mouthfeel Finish: long, some agave, and the pepper hangs on

This is so good I am lost for descriptors...agave, agave, agave is what comes to mind.

The aroma presents a faint cashew nuttiness, initially searing with ethyl tones that mellow significantly by the third night allows the delicious scents of petrichor, wood, grassy herbal characteristics, and slight tangy citrus tones to blend harmoniously. Letting it sit in the glass reveals an identifiable cooked agave prune note. On the palate, the flavor is warm and inviting. Soft nuttiness and cooked agave with subtle prune and raisin notes combine with a delicious buttery toast, cinnamon, and peppermint. Light lemon citrus, a flash of baked sweet potato, plum, minerality, fresh cut pencil shavings, black pepper, and palatable brine is quite flavorful. The finish is marked by a soft earthy exit, with a deliciously clinging buttery texture and brine. Faint minerality and the ghostly presence of grassiness rise towards the dying finale.

Amazing aroma. Taste is great, nice pepper and vegetal notes but not as multi-dimensional as I was expecting. Finish is medium, nice linger but no alcohol burn. Overall very good.

The best lot yet from the madera series!

Aroma - sweet cooked agave. Intensely sweet. Mint is hidden but there. Taste - sweet syrupy agave goodness. A little mineral but it’s hidden by the sweetness. Finish - sweet and warming. Had a hint of bitter/sweet dark chocolate. I don’t get all the hype. It is good but not really complex. It’s super sweet and an agave blast. I prefer regular G4 to this. Doesn’t change the fact that it is delicious though. Got it for $67.

Bottle: 08/04/2024, LG003B45ME Appearance: Clear Full review pending…

Very sweet and smooth texture. Took a long time to pin down the main flavor but finally settled on peppery butterscotch. This is a beautiful drink with a great finish. My highest flavor rating to date, only held back by pick and aroma.

nice cooked agave,lots of minerals, sweetness with a black pepper finish.might be in my top 5...

Floral, raw and cooked agave bomb, mineral, and mint! Amazing blanco, a few notches up from lot 2! Buy if you find it near msrp! Bought in Colorado Springs $90

I recently completed a side by side tasting of Lot 1,2 and 3. Independently I enjoy each one of them but once l had them side by side I was able to distinguish which one I preferred. Check my rating on the other lots to see which I rated the highest. They are all delicious and to think 10% of this goes into every blanco bottle is such a treat.

Distinctly different from the usual G4 Blanco, but entirely in a good way. The fermentation method results in a little sweeter and more wood forward expression on the palate. Highly recommend.

good aroma/ getting the wood but not too much/ light scent

A sweet agave aroma then a pepper and citrus twist. Flavor is spicy but after a few sips it mellows out to a sweet lingering. Finish is mineral. There is no bitterness. I can sip this all day. I think the fermentation is key. I purchased for $79.99 which I think is high but there’s a demand for this kind of line of tequila so it makes sense.

Nose: heavy agave with hints of mineral water and anise. Tastes just like it smells -lots of agave and mineral water. Some heat, in a good way. This was a neck pour. Looking forward to coming back to it.

Another great expression by 1579. the wood fermentation tank shines through.

Sweet Agave and baking spices. Love the 90 proof and wood fermentation. It's definitely a must have for me.

Amazing mouth feel and that flavor is top notch.
