Loads of baking spices on the palette., cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger. Almost like a bakery. Little pineapple and little barrel oak

Baking spice all over the place here….smells like Xmas cookies and nutmeg with roasted agave. Flavour is very cinnamon forward, a bit too much if I’m being critical, but gives way to a more traditional roasted agave profile. This is a fun curiosity Tequila, I applaud the step away from the ordinary.

Very unique, lots of cinnamon, and spice, barrel notes here for sure. Surprisingly better than I expected

Nose: Cinnamon, vanilla, grass, and a tart sweetness that leans toward apple or grape. Notes of maple syrup and rich baking spices round it out. Palate & Mouthfeel: Cooked agave sits beneath a bold wave of cinnamon apple pie. The baking spice intensity is no joke - nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, anise, and vanilla all show up in force. Caramel and a touch of barrel wood come in behind. Finish: Sweet at first, but the spice mix pushes it toward a slightly bitter close. Final Thoughts: This is well executed and clearly intentional, but for me it’s more of a one glass conversation piece than a go-to pour. The barrel influence dominates a bit too much to keep me coming back regularly - but I’d happily share it with a curious friend. It’s fun, it’s bold, and definitely not boring.

On first smell, the nose is a bit subtle but it was a small pour so I’ll revisit. The palate and finish are wonderful. There’s a creaminess to the palate and a long warm finish that lingers. You can definitely tell this is a high proof and I love it.

Totally unique.

Tried at sabor y cultura Chicago. Enchanting, unique aroma. Excellent mouth feel. Heavy cinnamon notes. Finishes somewhat bitter. Unusual flavor profile overall with the barreling taking the lead role. Cool experiment, but a bit too far out there for me to reach for this one consistently.

This is more than a pretty bottle!! Nose is sweet, cinnamon, butter, light Apple, cooked agave. It just keeps opening up the longer it sits. Palette is similar to the nose, brings back old school cinnamon Fire ball candies as a kid. Finish- great mouth, cinnamon, cooked agave and great heat.

This is a very unique expression coming from the master Sergio Cruz. I let this one breathe a bit before diving in. There is a lot of cinnamon here. I almost get like a baked apple cinnamon on the nose and palate. The taste is very sweet up front then the black peeper comes in on the back end. A very different and enjoyable experience. Nose: cinnamon, vanilla, cooked agave, baking spice, apple, and barrel spice. Palate: cinnamon, vanilla, cooked agave, baking spice, apple, barrel spice, and black pepper. A very unique and enjoyable expression that is a must try.

Maple syrup, cinnamon bomb. banana and vanilla, Apple Jacks. A nose that just screams of sweetness. First taste this is amazing. It is a night out in the woods by the campfire. Apple pie with cinnamon,

Nose is maple syrup, vanilla, waffles, smells like breakfast! Amazing notes! Even banana in there, wow, pallet is same notes, good power, peppery, 53% amazingness

Vessel: Glencairn Nose: Vanilla, Cinnamon, Apple, Peach, Carmel, Sugar Taste: Vanilla, Cream Soda, Almond, Pepper, Apricot, Cinnamon Finish: Vanilla, Cinnamon, Cream, Almond, Marshmallow This was a BOLD thing to create. Whether you love or hate this release; it's undoubtedly one-of-a-kind. This one grew on me in time. It took about a week to fully appreciate it for what it is, a masterpiece that breaks the rules. This is probably one of the most unique sips I've had in a LONG time. I give Arturo lots of credit for taking this chance and making something completely different. I think we'll soon see a lot more Amburana projects from brands in the future... well.. maybe that's just wishful thinking ;)

On the nose: It smells like a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch! It’s crazy. Cinnamon, white sugar, soft wood, toasted vanilla On the pallet: Cooked agave, cinnamon, baking spice, dried fruit, sweet & heat! This bottle is delicious. A masterclass in amburana. It’s there but not over powering and the heat from its 106-proof is beautifully balanced with its sweetness and flavor! I got it for $90 and for that, it’s a great value. Plus the bottle looks gorgeous on my shelf. Highly recommend grabbing one of the 1900 bottles produced if you can find one!

Nose- Cherry, agave, anise, salt, oak, raisins Plate - agave, coconut, oak, and vanilla. Finish - really nice finish with a perfect abv

Lost Lore Reposado Amburana. This expression is a must try! It's very unique. I've never had anything like it. Immediately, I got cinnamon, almost like a churro or cinnamon toast with a mild apple flavor and some tropical notes. That kept me wanting more. It's delicious! Lost Lore, Sergio Cruz and the gang at 1414 did it again! Aged in Amburana barrels. Amburana wood, sometimes called "Brazilian oak," is a type of hardwood native to South America, particularly Brazil, used for barrel aging spirits like cachaça and increasingly whiskey. It's known for imparting a distinctive, cinnamon-forward flavor profile with notes of vanilla, floral, and tropical elements.

Very funky one from Lost Lore. Very cinnamon, very sweet. Almost tastes like Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I’m a fan! Plus a really nice unique bottle.

So unique Nose is baked apple pie with cinnamon and more cinnamon. It is wonderful On the palate baking spices alcohol with lots of cinnamon It’s got a good viscosity Finish is nice with some barrel spices. Agave there but a bit overshadowed Balanced and good. Enjoying it but more of a treat a sipper with friends or after dinner delicious and very well made wouldn’t be my goat to every day bottle

Tasted in Chisholm Trail Jarrito Aroma: Loads of Cinnamon, Cinnamon, and Cinnamon! Agave is present, but definitely overshadowed. Citrus notes. Taste: Cooked Agave mixing with RedHots and Black Pepper. Orange Citrus and Butter.

Wholly unlike any other tequila I've tasted. the nose gives me French toast vibes. or perhaps more accurately, it smells like my milk after eating a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. it's not so saccharine sweet though. there's some alcohol to offer some balance. on the palate is that addition of fruity notes, primarily apple. slightly tart. on the finish I get some maple and more cinnamon. amidst all those sweet and spicy notes is agave, which does not get lost in the mix. bold flavor. audacious tequila-making. probably not for everyone, but I'm a fan.

Las notas de canela are crazy

An outstanding and unique expression from Sergio Cruz. The nose on this thing is insane. Apple pie fresh out of the oven on a crisp fall afternoon. Perfect proofing, flavor packed without overwhelming. Really one of a kind.

Aroma: (22) agave, cinnamon, fruit, spices Taste: (28) agave, cinnamon, baking spices, fruit apples Finish: (23)nice lingering finish with spices, oak, cinnamon, apple Overall (88) great sipping Reposado, with complexity of spices, fruit, oak, & agave.

Cinnamon, honey, pepper, brine with an apple pie spice kiss. Such a wonderfully crafted libation by Sergio. Great sunset sipper with familia . That Brazilian amburana oak comes through nicely. Different for a Reposado but good. Long enjoyable finish. Salud !

agave, cinnamon, vanilla, oak

The Amburana influence comes through strong on the nose with sweet baking spices, cinnamon, and a light touch of woodiness. On the palate, it's warm and unique—cinnamon, vanilla, spice, and light agave. Definitely not your traditional reposado, but if you're into experimental finishes, this one is amazing and I highly recommend it.
