Blind tasting with AMM: This was a fresh, green leaning blanco with a bright and slightly savory profile. On the nose, cooked agave comes through first, followed by black pepper and a grassy, green note. There’s a hint of olive that adds a subtle savory touch, along with orange peel that brings a bit of citrus brightness. On the palate, the cooked agave leads again, supported by black pepper and a noticeable wet grass character that gives it a crisp, natural feel. Citrus comes through with a tangerine-like sweetness, while vegetal notes round out the profile and keep it grounded. The finish is a bit short, fading quicker than expected but leaving behind light citrus and green notes. Overall, this is a clean, easy drinking blanco with a fresh, grassy profile. It doesn’t linger long, but it’s enjoyable and approachable while it lasts.
Tasted blind, re-trying now. The aroma has nice clean agave notes with some pepper, subtle but clean. The flavor had pepper some grass along with light agave. The finish was quick and mildly numbing. Overall pretty good.
Nose - Agave, leaves, cinnamon, wood shop, herbs, spearmint, black pepper, anise and fresh cut flowers Taste - agave, pepper, mint, lumber, grapefruit zest, minerals, bitter chocolate, and butter somewhat light mouthfeel with a average finish with notes of citrus zest and sage
Blind tasting via AMM: I get cinnamon Red Hots on the aroma and flavor, with additional flavors of agave and anise. Nice medium finish. Pricey.
Earthy on the nose with some florals in the mix. There’s a general sweetness on the palate with some citrus pith, lime, peppers, earthy notes, green apple skin, and flower petals. There’s an interplay between sweet in bitter, but the balance is off for me. Leans a bit too far bitter on the finish.
The most reliable agave awards, with blind judging, praised these tequilas.
