Nose: Cooked agave, vanilla, brine, petrichor, earth, citrus, and a touch of honey. A nice mix of sweet and savory - classic but with some nuance. Palate & Mouthfeel: Thinner mouthfeel than expected, but there’s still some grip. Cooked agave is front and center, followed by anise, black pepper, a good dose of vanilla, and a little oak rounding things out. Citrus threads through and lifts the profile just enough. Finish: Creamy but bright. Smooth, with a gentle linger that carries the vanilla and pepper. Final Thoughts: Solid across the board. At $60, this is a strong value thats accessible but not boring. There’s enough going on to keep an experienced drinker engaged, but it’s friendly enough to pull someone in early on their tequila journey. Easy to like.

This was a very enjoyable tequila. Well balanced, and full of warm character without losing the agave at its core. On the nose, you’re greeted with rich cooked agave layered with warm cinnamon and soft vanilla. There’s a mellow oak presence that brings depth, along with notes of caramel and a hint of citrus brightness. Baking spices weave through it all, and there’s a subtle mineral edge that keeps it grounded and clean. On the palate, the cooked agave is still front and center, which I love. It’s complemented by a gentle cinnamon spice and a touch of oak that adds some structure without dominating. Black pepper gives it a little kick, while silky vanilla and caramel provide sweetness and roundness. There’s a whisper of brine and anise on the back end, and the mineral note carries through for a dry, satisfying finish. This reposado hits a great balance. Rich but not overly sweet, and still very true to the agave. A thoughtful barrel influence adds complexity without overshadowing the core spirit. Definitely one I’ll revisit.

For a Repo I got very little barrel notes and an unbelievable flavor

Nose: Agave, Oak, Almond, Anise, Wet Cement, Minerality, Leather, Vanilla, and Cinnamon Mouthfeel: Medium to Full-bodied Palate: Cinnamon, Black Pepper, Herbs and Minerality Finish: Agave, Cinnamon, Vanilla, Black Pepper, Arugula I find this to be a pleasant sipper. As much as I am confident about the quality of most products made at 1123, I find that I am more picky and less confident about their aged selections as they can totally be a hit or miss for me. This was a bullseye. Such a great combination here of savory, sweet, herbal aromas and flavors.

Nose: agave cooked / vanilla/ pepper/ earth / vegetal / pear / citrus / bell pepper/ tea / baking spice Taste: agave cooked / vanilla/ peppermint/ cinnamon/ pear / lime / anise / tea / baking spice / honey / molasses/ cream soda Finish: light viscosity mouthfeel that allows the peppermint note to coat the palate at the finish creating a very enjoyable experience/ lingering agave, vanilla, and peppermint keep on providing flavor for long after the last swallow This reposado is a very nice pour that brings forth some balance but still lets the sweet/pepper contrast play out through the whole tasting experience. The nose seems weak, but there are detectable aromas that match up on the flavor well.

Sweet Agave, lemon citrus which evolves into a peppery and spicy finish. Vanilla and oak presence. Very nice mouth feel and natural sweetness. Mild numbing and drying effect. Great pour!

Very nice repo with great barrel notes. Maybe it is the three barrels but it really brings forward the barrel spices. Nice cooked agave on the nose as well as a floral scent. The taste also brings forward the cooked agave, the barrel spices, cinnamon and a nice honey finish. The finish is rather long lasting with a nice agave presence.

Love this brand! Everything they make is delicious, and this reposado meets that expectation. This reposado is delicious! give it time to open up. it gets better and better. The nose is amazing! cooked agave, barrel spices, some cinnamon, floral and fruity. The palate is agave forward, barrel spices, anise, cinnamon and mild oak, which I like as I'm not a fan of overly oaky expressions, and this has just the right amount for me. The Finish is nice and long with warmth, sweet agave and anise. Chava, Steve and the crew hit another one out of the park with this one!

I love Repos that taste more like a blanco than an Anejo (minimal oak). This repo with a mix of barrels has just enough oak influence to remind you this is not a blanco. Cinnamon and agave sweetness followed by that Michoacán spice I love.

A beautiful blend of three barrels, cooking, spice, dried fruit, light layer of caramel, vanilla and cinnamon. A slight brine and earthy notes. Lingering finish.

Nose is blanco+. Tons of agave character. Incredible flavor. Subtle sweetness and beautiful balance. Long finish, especially for the relatively minimal aging. This is a blanco-lovers reposado, and one of my new all-time favorites.

Nose- Brine, honey and a floral sweetness. Moth feel is velvety smooth with cooked agave, brine, and cinnamon. Finish- cooked agave with a salty brine undertone. Another win from Legado and NOM1123

Floral mineral aromas with a touch of leather. Flavors of sweet agave, cinnamon, honey, salt water, slight anise. Great legs. Barely any oak, nice and light for a Reposado. Excellent!

Very complex has a lot going on. The main aromas and flavors I got were sweet cooked agave, rose, cinnamon, ancho, citrus, and agave. Great tequila to enjoy anytime you want something a little special.

El Gran Legado, just like Cazcanes, Atanasio & Don Fulano finally available in the Netherlands. As one who loves tequila I got super excited and of course purchased all of them! Beautiful clean lable, creates a good fibe. After opening i got on the nose some agave, minerals and a bit floral. My collegue got some vanilla notes too. Taste wise i got several flavours which got me a little by surprise in a great way. Definately agave, mildly herbal, floral and cinnamon. Got a longer finish than expected and some mild peppers to make me fall in love with this tequila! Great price, great bottle, great taste… can’t wait to start selling this beauty

Aroma: lots of cooked agave, minerals, and citrus up front. A faint amount of baking spices on the backend. Taste: matches the aroma very closely. Strong on agave, minerals, citrus zest, pepper, nutmeg, and cinnamon. The baking spices complement the agave beautifully. I’m not sure how long this has been rested, but it’s one of the best repos I’ve ever tasted. Finish: nice and long. Pepper and agave all the way through. I rated this after my 2nd or third glass a few days after opening the bottle. The first taste was solid but you could tell the flavors were muted and needed a little time to open up. This is an absolute gem.
