The aroma is wonderful! And that ends the good stuff for me. The taste is a little off almost like it’s under ripe agave. The finish goes bitter. Not my style.

Might need to let this one sit and open up a bit. Must vegetal earthy flavors. A solid high proof.

citrus agave

Nose: sweet cooked agave, citrus, mineral, fruit, and earthy Flavor: cooked agave, citrus, earthy, ripe fruit, and creamy mouthfeel Finish: medium, black pepper and mint

Nice Citrus, lemon zest, slight earthy feels with pepper.

Some heat on this one, opens up with citrus, herbal, mint, notes of pepper and spice with some light vegetal notes. A good punch to your agave cocktails.

Different aroma, kinda like a dusty room to start, followed by some rich butter and bit of citrus. First sip might be hot at 54%, but after acclimating it mellows. It’s a bit dry and slightly bitter, with some herbal/vegetal notes and loads of pepper.

A nice HP at a great price point. 55.99. The nose is soft but nice. Agave, citrus, minerals, pepper, a slight spice note, and very mild vegetal Also soft as far as the taste. Agave, lime, minerals, pepper, and nice warm finish.

Pre-release sample.

Tasted in a Chisholm Trail HP glass. At 108 proof, not a lot of alcohol on the nose. Nice agave a citrus. Lime is forward. Light minerality and earthiness. On the palate, sweet agave and mint. Buttery. Slightly floral. Really well balanced. This is an easy drinker and the ABV supercharges the standard Lalo blanco. I thought this would be good and it is. Finish is nice with a good mouthfeel. Agave and minty aftertaste.

Nice nose, maloactic, creamy, agave is there, all in all nice balanced high proof, good value, easy sipper. Not elite tier but priced fairly.

Musty agave nose. Palate has a lot of heat to it which is nice with a tinge of sweetness

Agave and butterscotch on the nose. The higher proof hits when in a Glencarin. Oily, thick mouthfeel. The butterscotch comes through on the palate. Long, lingering finish, agave just sticks around. Overall, delightful.

I feel bad rating it low but I wouldn’t recommend or drink it again. I’m not a fan

Nose: agave, vanilla, banana & smoke. Taste - very floral, cooked agave, honeydew melon, saline and some heat but also very smooth and warm for an overproof. Coats the mouth and the warm creamy spices lend to a buttery mouthfeel The finish is peppery and makes me want to go in for another sip. This has a unique profile to me among higher proofs and I enjoy it very much but price on the shelf gets it docked a few value points. Would like to see this in the 60$ range - locally it’s 70-90. I enjoy this a bit more than its blanco counterpart - but the price point of the blanco puts its overall rating a couple points higher than what I could give this.

Agave up front on the nose. Vegetal with an earthiness. Not much alcohol on the nose. More of a raw agave on the palate. Those vegetal notes are there as well. Minerality. Pepper. Alcohol. Kind of a hot finish. It’s good, but not great, especially at the price. Definitely enjoy the 80 proof more.

Lot: 3LL54BCO24, bottled on 02/10/24, tasted on 2-20-25. Aroma: cooked agave with a hint of sweetness, hint of green vegetal notes, hint of earthiness, hint of white pepper, cooked agave becomes sweeter as time goes by. Straightforward cooked agave aromas. Palate: confirms aromas perceived, good sweet and sour balance, cooked agave sweetness. Finish is medium to long, cooked agave with a hint of sweetness, hint of green vegetal notes with a hint of pepper spiciness persists.

I was hesitant with the proof, but this was an amazing blanco at 108 proof. The intense flavor of agave and smooth finish was surprising. I’m glad I got this bottle and tried it because it exemplifies the beauty of tequila at higher proofs without succumbing to that ethanol hit. This was so smooth and delicious that I hope they do another release. Truly amazing and at a great price!

Peppery finish, mild but pleasant aroma ; I haven’t had many high proof tequilas but this is top notch

Incredibly smooth but not much flavor.

Feels like I got a bad bottle. Practically undrinkable except in a ranch water or more.

Bottle: Bottle No. A 19991, 2LL54BC024, 26/09/24 Appearance: Clear Full review pending…

2/10/24 bottle Nose gives off a peppery, minerality,with a slight funk I can’t put my finger on. Taste throws heat and an almost oily French fry starch right up front, short finish. Not bad. But I prefer the regular 80 proof
