8 reserve 818 NOM 1607 sample from john welch - neck pour 9/2024 Nose tropical fruit with a mild soap scent Palate is sweet Flat finish

What a bunch of godawful crap. Cloyingly sweet and tastes every bit as manipulated as CA which has the nicer bottle.

This is a fun bottle. However past the nose on this it is too sweet. The aroma is fun and has a light agave and a fruity, peppery smell that is blended with other caramel and vanilla with fruit hiding in the wings. The taste has no agave and is a very light caramel and vanilla flavor masked by cinnamon, a mint and maybe even licorice. It is a little overwhelming and ruins the finish too, which is just a peppery lingering flavor. Beautiful bottle though.

sweet, little agave flavor, easy smooth dessert sipper

It’s a interesting flavor. Slight alcohol at first and then a creamy after taste. Slight tingle on the tongue. I believe this isn’t the best tequila and way over priced

Nose: Acetone, expecting it to taste harsh Palate: Flat, sweet, alcohol is intense, no agave

Not good. Clase Azul alternative. No agave, all syrupy caramel and vanilla artificial sweetness.
