Lágrimas del Valle Plata - 2022 Palo Verde

86 SCORE

“Are my samples “flat”? Starting to wonder. The Palo and La Loma are just kinda missing a spark. So was my Rum Barrel Ensueno batch 2. Solid but decidedly unspectacular. Vegetal. Low mineral. What’s missing here is the finish on any of these.”

Painted Donkey Blanco

82 SCORE

“Not anything horrible in this tequila. It’s drinkable but I don’t get any of the minerals or minty finish that I usually look for. You can mix or sip it but I get the same effect from both. Just bland. At least there’s no sewage, burnt garbage type notes like in some of the other cheaper ones. If you’re budgeting this one will get you through tough times. ”

“Dessert in a glass, not a ton of agave to be found around all the sweetness. Obviously altered.”

Herradura Añejo

64 SCORE

“One of the most artificial-tasting tequilas I’ve ever had. The oak notes are off, the caramel and butterscotch notes are more reminiscent of grandma’s candy than of imparted barrel sweetness. The finish it hot and bitter/sour. This doesn’t taste like tequila.”

“Aroma, filled my nose with sweet vanilla, agave and hints of butterscotch, toffee and cinnamon Palate, the agave came first then a burst of vanilla, caramel , butterscotch and wait ' boom ' cinnamon. Finish, medium to long with those sweet vanilla, caramel and agave . The nice warm mouthfeel of pepper lingered fading into sweet joy. Overall, I would say this is a nice sipper and pleasant to have around a good fire. ”

“Aroma , it was a nice agave that lead into this earthy vegetal and minerals, with a slight citrus blast to the nose.

“would make a good mixer, not a favorite for sipping but would be OK in a pinch.”

Lost Lore NASA Liquor Single Barrel Añejo

82 SCORE

“Would be interested to drink through a couple more. The stout barrel just really mutes all the best parts of the agave. I love the creativity and effort. Lots of chocolate, which my son picked out on the nose and sip. I’d run a glass or 2 back just to dabble further but I don’t think it would change overall for me.”

“Simply fantastic. Would love to find that batch but I’m assuming the Oscar’s doesn’t miss as they spin forward. Beautiful profile.”

El Tequileño Still Strength Blanco

84 SCORE

“I visited the distillery a few years ago but they didn't have this Still Strength at the time. Found it on sale for a great price. Aroma of cooked agave, minerals, alcohol, citrus, vegetal and earth. Flavor of cooked agave, black pepper, alcohol, minerals, citrus, vegetal and earth. Finish was medium-long.”

El Caballito Cerrero Blanco (46%)

92 SCORE

“AROMA: Bringing the glass to your nose, you're hit with the pure, sweet richness of cooked agave, quickly joined by a gentle, warming smokiness. Hints of fresh grass and vegetal tones bring an uplifting freshness, while a deep earthy, mineral backbone rounds out the experience with complexity. FLAVOR: On the palate, it opens with a deep, warming richness of cooked and sweet agave. You’ll immediately notice layers of fresh herbs and bright citrus, grounded by a distinctive smoky depth and a clean, earthy minerality that ties the whole tasting experience together. FINISH: The finish leaves a lasting impression that is both complex and refreshing, as the warmth of sweet agave and black pepper fades into cooling vegetal and herbal notes, while lingering citrus and hints of smoke meet a clean, mineral aftertaste. ”

3 Tres Tequila Añejo

“Did not like this anejo, has too many artificial ingredients from the nose to the palate. Too much vanilla, caramel and oak flavoring that makes it undrinkable. I would avoid this.”

Siembra Alteño Blanco

92 SCORE

“AROMA: Pouring a fine blanco brings an instant wave of fresh, earthy raw agave that immediately commands attention. As it opens up, bright bursts of citrus and lime around the senses, perfectly balanced by a cooling hint of mint. Underneath that vibrant freshness, a distinctive mineral quality grounds the aroma, rounded out by a lively snap of black pepper that leaves a lasting impression. FLAVOR: On the palate, it unfolds with the richness of sweet agave, immediately followed by the warmth of black pepper. Bright waves of citrus and lime come through, balanced by a clean breeze of mint. A crisp mineral texture ties it all together, creating a vibrant and exceptionally clean finish. FINISH: The finish leaves a crisp, refreshing impression that lingers gently. You'll notice the warmth of black pepper gently receding while the cooling sensation of mint and bright citrus notes stay with you, leaving a clean, mineral aftertaste. ”

Tequila Cabal Reposado

90 SCORE

“Another example of a brand improving when they change distilleries. This is good stuff. Aromas of pine, mint, earth, hay/straw, wet grass, minerals, and some butterscotch. Flavor hits me with vanilla right away, then some caramel, cinnamon, nuts, and raisins, with a long agave finish. LOVE all the production details on the label! Thank you. ”

El Tesoro Extra Añejo

88 SCORE

“Tasted a freshly opened bottle in an airport, so it was pretty pricey. Based my score off what I see it retail for. Aroma: great balance. I could still smell agave clearly, and it was blended nicely along with some caramel, cinnamon, and peat. Taste: matches the aroma nicely. Strong hit of pepper on the back end. Finish: it doesn’t last as long as I would prefer. Overall: it’s delicious, but pretty pricey. If I ever buy a bottle it would be saved for special occasions.”
