Nose: clean agave, fruity, sweet! Palate: perfect balance of agave and barrel! Great finish!
Has a wonderful tropical banana note. Simple profile
tried at temezcal cantina in Boston 2014. noted we like it. was smooth but lacked complexity
This tequila is my first love, you never forget your first!! Oodles of roasted agave on the nose, banana nut muffin flavour(perfect for breakfast) and an amazing oily finish that coats your whole mouth. I still love this!
Bottle is dated 19/12/06 RLA-002. More oak and barrel spice than El Tesoro reposado from the same time frame. The base distillate would be similar so it's possible that newer barrels were used for aging this at the time. Blanco of this brand turns up much more often than the reposado and añejo so if you see this grab it for some 10+ year old agave goodness from La Alteña.
Cream soda nose and taste.
Great nose and palate is similar to the Ocho profile, but I get more pronounced banana flavor. Drinks a little hotter than an 80 proof and has a bitter backend. Still a solid sipper!
It's a very citrus forward flavor, I also get vanilla, honey, pepper notes. Overall, it's a nice pour to try.
RLA-007, bottled on 12/07/07, tasted on 6-29-25. Color: just a tad of yellow, almost transparent like blanco. Aroma: light sweet cooked agave, light fruitiness, light acidity, hint of pineapple aroma, light citrus, as time goes by the cooked agave becomes more intense. Palate: confirms aromas perceived, good sweet sour and citrus balance. Finish is medium to long, light sweet cooked agave, light fruitiness with light citrus note persists.
Yea! Love the Trago line.. so delicious. Well made.. amazing flavors.. bananas, spices, agave, minerals, all come together in the lovely tequila dance. Well done.
Caramel
Subtle citrus nose. buttery, Carmel first impression on the taste. nice consistent finish.
Jay @ Añejo presented this gem for tasting. Apparently Jay can’t get this anymore!!
I’m not normally a fan of reposados, but this one I love. It’s got a sort of overripe banana flavour that I’ve seen nowhere else. It’s also a great deal for the quality. It’s too bad that we won’t be able to get it anymore shortly.
Beautiful peppery green nose with bright agave. Palette reflects the nose well but finishes a bit hot. A little barrel on the finish but more of a long numbing tingle on the sides of the palette.
The aroma is on the sweeter side. Notes of banana and fruit. Taste is similar to the aroma. The finish is very smooth.
Lot 1 (RLA-01) Nose: Agave punch, with some tropical fruits, Bananas, oak and spices. Flavors: A ton of agave, Bananas, tropical fruits, spices, oak. The agave is superior on the the taste. Finish: Medium, clean finish, a little heat but balanced. I can still taste the sweet agaves and fruits in my palate. This is delicious. This is some classic Carlos and Felipe Camarena tequila. It has the dna of Everything from Tapatio, Ocho and G4. If you come across these old dusties, don't blink just buy and enjoy.
