I drank samples of Conexiones at the distillery and now have bottles at home…and it has been a top of the chart expression each time for me. Sergio Cruz says tequila continues to transform in the bottle…and he’s right. Conexiones gets better and better each time, and having started out so good it’s on its way to legend quality in my bottles. Nose: Vanilla / cooked agave / cinnamon / butter / light minerality / floral / citrus (orange)/ banana / pineapple / tropical fruit / hint of bell pepper / hint of tea / orange blossom / jasmine (NOTE: this is the BEST Nose I’ve ever experienced on a high proof blanco) Taste: cooked agave / pepper / vanilla / spicy cinnamon / vegetal sweetness / banana / pineapple / citrus / orange / lime / hint of spearmint / anise / hint of tobacco spiciness / minerals Finish: light viscosity that coats the palate well but disappates fast. It still however leaves fantastic vanilla, spicy cinnamon, pepper, agave, mint, and a huge citrus kick fighting for top billing as the last flavors of your sip. Very clean and minty fresh aftertaste. This is a superb high proof blanco from the collaboration of Doug Price, Sergio Cruz, and Alex LaCroix from Siempre Tequila. The nose and taste are exceptional and the finish is good, though its the only downside compared to the taste and nose. Most brands would die to have a finish this good. I HIGHLY reccomend this high proof blanco.
