Vessel: CT HP Nose: Hay, Raisin, Must, Yeast, Ammonia Tobacco Mildew, Raw or Undercooked Agave Palate: Mustard Seed, Anise, Asparagus, Mint Finish: Lime, Anise, Mushroom, Cooked Agave This one didn't do much for me. It had a certain type of earthy, musty funk that I have experienced before and am simply not the biggest fan of. Based on the nose, the palate and finish were more enjoyable than expected, but this flavor profile just doesn't jive well with me. This reminds me a lot of the 1584 Pasote blanco.

This is made at Tepozan, they are very capable of making solid tequila. To me, the profile has this very green almost sour profile. Not sure I’m looking to sip on this but at 48%, made well, and around $50 it’s something I’d recommend.

Lote 1MD Aroma: agave, vegetal, fusil alcohol with slight blue cheese, and a little smoke and alcohol tingle Flavor: stewed agave sweetness with some peppery spice and light smoke Mouthfeel: medium bodied with a little alcohol burn Finish: finishes sweet with vegetal lingering that I sensed on the nose Color: clear This is clearly a tequila for lovers of mezcal. It reminds me of a mellow raicilla. It's good, just not a typical tequila.

Very similar flavor profile to Pasote that feels "fuller" at the 48%. Great value for an HP.

Earthy, almost mushrooms. Dark rich cooked agave. Non existent alcohol. Pleasant sweetness on nose.
