Cultura 100 Repo hp Sample from Matt Cavanaugh Agave Swappers from the brand owner: rested 3 months in American Oak, just enough time to kiss the barrel but keep the agave as the focus. Our profile pushes out a lot of citrus which fights with the wood over time. you’ll see Cultura staying lower in aging time for that reason - like an Anejo may be 12 months on the nose to keep it agave forward as possible. my tasting notes: Sweet agave cinnamon earthy some anise and light barrel notes. Really enjoying this. Way too easy to sip, and its 47 abv!

Would like to revisit… sample pour

Blind tasting via AMM: Very light agave aroma, almost neutral. Flavor delivers simple mix of sweet agave and white pepper. It’s got a dry mouth but a nice medium-long spicy finish. Not terribly complex but very approachable. Extra points for value.

A very agave forward blanco. On the nose is cooked agave, vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, clove, lemon/lime and earthy tones. On the palate is sweet agave, handful of olives, brine, fresh mint, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, citrus, and mud(but I’m enjoying it). The finish is very nice with hints of celery creeping in on the tail end. This sample reminds me of a great valley tequila. It’s both sweet and spicy with a nice muddy base.
