Medium amber in the glass, darker than many repos out these days. That could be from the combination of barrel types used. Aroma of cooked agave, caramel, cinnamon, oak and barrel spice. Flavor of cooked agave, black pepper, caramel, cinnamon, oak and a hint of butter. Medium-long finish.

Agave Swappers Blind Round 2: Repo Vessel: Glencairn Nose: Honey, Floral, Oak, Butter Palate: Caramel, Jalapeno, Cream Finish: Honey, Cinnamon, Cherry, Almond

Tough rating for me. I can’t get any aroma off it. I even poured some my hand and used it like aftershave. But still nothing! Taste is quickly barrel before a hint of agave. Finished with some pepper and burned sweetness—lightly bitter.

Taste like medicine. Not a tequila I like This was my original comment. Obviously a 70 says I did like this. I am now tasting a new lot with a different production method. This is April 2026 that I am tasting and I just received this from Volcán. The palate is agave with barrel notes of cinnamon, vanilla, oak, and caramel The palate doesn’t have that medicine taste I got in the first lot. It is alcohol forward which I think masks some of the flavors hidden below. While this one isn’t the awful 70 that I originally tasted, it also isn’t a repo that I would go back to on a regular basis.

Bottle: L122A220280, 11:49:02 1760, 26/04/2022 Appearance: Light maple syrup Nose: Oak, cinnamon, cooked agave, vanilla, butter, molasses, apple cider, nutmeg, flowers, whiskey, barrel spice, clove, anise, leather, citrus, orange, honey, black pepper, dry earth, and mint…very barrel-heavy for a reposado Palate: Oak, molasses, vanilla, cooked agave, butter, cinnamon, clove, flowers, gardenia, black currant, citrus, lemon, black tea, black pepper, butterscotch, wood shavings, oregano, peach cobbler, light smoke, and mocha…the agave is there, but the aging steals the show Finish: Oak, black pepper, oregano, flowers, and molasses…medium viscosity with a quite long, warming finish Overall: This is a hard one to describe. The initial pour felt overly oaky and unidimensional. However, after giving it some time to open up, the flavors and aromas felt more balanced and harmonious…but, still, the most notable among them very heavily favor the barrel aging process and not the base agave. It’s incredible to see how much barrel influence can be imparted in the same timeframe as, say, a lightly rested Tequila Ocho reposado. Will most likely buy this again at some point.

Packed with flavor. The new oak barrels really create a lot of pop. Fruity. Honey. Smoke. Looooong finish. This repo has so much structure it might actually be a candidate for over ice.

Aroma/Taste – The oak-aged bourbon is unmistakable. This has all the typical notes of barrel aging, vanilla, caramel, leather. Upon first sip, all the baking spices are there, cinnamon, clove, pinch of nutmeg; I also smell pine. While the essence of agave is discernible, it takes a backseat to the robust presence of bourbon. Finish – Herbal and green pepper on the finish. I enjoy a nice, long finish here. This is warm all the way down. Overall – I really enjoyed this tequila. It's a standout choice for introducing bourbon enthusiasts to the nuanced and delightful world of tequila. Though I appreciated its complexity, I wished for a more pronounced presence of agave, rather than it taking a supporting role.

Very smoky with a lovely finish. The sweetness of the agave comes through along with the smokiness which is a unique and favorable combination Nose is wood, some tropical fruit, which is special The finish is excellent

Nose- Slightly sweeter aroma, oak with aromas of caramel. Almost caramel candy like. Palate- Much more oak influence, sweeter, almost like an anejo. Strong caramel/vanilla flavors, cooked agave, baking spices, alcohol presence. Finish- Slightly shorter finish, oak barrel sweetness really carries through, overall woody finish. Notes- Almost Anejo like, slightly harsher, with more alcohol presence, being helped along with a healthy dose of oaky sweetness.

Eye- nice golden color with slow dripping legs Mouthfeel- buttery Nose- cooked agave, deep leather, fruit, caramel, barrel notes and minerality Taste- nice cave, sweetness buttery, pitted fruit, barrel oakiness, with a slight bitterness like orange peel, dark chocolate and butterscotch. This one has a short finish that dissipates quickly.

Nice barrel nose with sweetness and beautiful color in glass. Palate is easy going with a slight heat finish. Nice from start to finish for me. This was a nice relaxing sip. Tasted with AF 2024 Blind Repo. My highest rated tasting.

Nose - Agave, caramel, oak, bourbon, dark fruit, butter Taste - Agave, caramel, oak, honey, bourbon, baking spices, pepper. medium mouth feel Darkest but yellowish. Light mouth feel Tasting 2 Nose- Agave, Carmel, oak, bourbon, butter, Fruit Taste - Agave, butterschotch, honey, spices, pepper, dark fruit Tasting 3 Nose - Agave, caramel, oak, aerosol butter, Fruit, raisin, bourbon, Taste - Agave, butterschotch/toffee, honey, spices, pepper, dark fruits, dark chocolate, aerosol

Despite being a reposado, it has the characteristics of an añejo. Dark colored with an aroma consisting of: slight agave, whiskey, banana, butterscotch. Taste matches the aroma with an oaky touch.

Overall - very nice . . . delicately balanced w/ beautiful hue. Aroma - "full" w/ whiffs of chocolate + cinnamon. Flavor - moderate sweetness but not overpowering. Finish - bit of sweetness but also spice nicely lingers. Balanced well.

Appearance is dark honey. N- honey, agave, fairly floral, vanilla, earth, apple, cherry, dusty oak T- baked agave, light bourbon (oak, vanilla), honey, pineapple, just a hint of jalapeno MF- full bodied F- medium in length and very well balanced

Distillery tasting 80 Blind tasting: 81 Earthy, musty, char barrel/match on the nose—very unique. Got some agave, orange, and whiskey flavor.

Volcán de mi Tierra - Reposado This Reposado is created with 100% Highland (Los Altos) agaves! The tequila is then aged for 135 days, which is just over two months, in new American and European oak. It has a rich nose. I smell the cooked agave, baking spices, orange citrus oil and oak. I taste cooked agave, orange bitters and the caramelized topping from crème brûlée. There is a peppery alcohol tingle on the mid pallete. The flavors linger on the finish due to its nice viscosity. This is a powerful Reposado and it’s one I’d recommend you trying. I’m not accustomed to European oak so I’m getting some notes I’m not used to. Salud!

Complex, well made, addictive free Repo, good mouth feel, slight sweetness with citrus and a little heat. I like this one

Nose: cooked agave, white pepper, apple, pear, oak, nutmeg, ginger Palate: cooked agave, black pepper, cinnamon, clove, anise, hazelnut, oak

Nose: sour with organic compounds Mouth: light body, tannins Palate: tropical fruits, balanced sweetness, good depth, layered flavors Finish: finishes sour with bitter mouth heat. Most of the flavor depth is lost. After-finish you get some cigar notes

Caramel, oak, cinnamon, bitter floralness, vanilla, and black pepper Comes across with a heavy barrel influence for a repo.

I am just not a fan of Volcan, so many other options that are superior to this brand. Just not my flavor profile at all
