Aroma: 23/25 Great nose. Doesn’t have the wow impact to be higher. Great cooked agave Palate: 27/30 Finish: 24/25 Long agave goodness with a subtle sweetness. Mild numbing effect Value: 7/10 $75 in San Francisco

Nose: Starts with fresh and vegetable aromas, like freshly cut grass, green apple, a hint of crushed mineral. Alive and bright with a light peppery lift. Palate: Cooked agave at its core, with earthy, fibrous and slightly sweet. The barrel influence comes through with confidence. Oak, warming vanilla, and that bourbon spice… but like a baking spice. Finish: The wood lingers, drying slightly. Hints of citrus come out here, almost like a lime zest. Overall: A well balanced Reposado that reminds me slightly of an Añejo. The agave wasn’t buried by the barrel, it still comes out beautifully. Good balance between raw and rested.
