Clean and refined profile with low complexity. Good mixer! Notes: raw agave, herbal, grass, mineral & metallic

Reminds of Lalo (same distillery) NOM 1468. Really nice cooked agave, warming but smooth not hot, minimal white pepper, vanilla and salty minerals to round out flavor. This is a solid blanco.

Very clean aroma with no alcohol smell. Picking up some minerality and citrus. Getting orange rind with sparkling champagne along with minerality on taste. Nice finish. Enjoyable sipper.

No codes seen anywhere on the bottle, acquired on March 2023. Aroma: slightly sweet cooked agave, slightly citrus, slightly briny, alcohol sensation is slightly high. Palate: briny raw agave, expressive but almost no sweetness. Finish is medium to long briny raw agave persists.

I need to revisit this one, I had a small sample at the end of a long tasting of other tequilas last year. My palate may have been compromised.

I see the panel slammed it a few years ago. I don’t know if this is a new NOM or a new method but this is a fine sipper. I get a lot of agave and not much else. Isn’t listed as additive free but doesn’t feel laden down with false textures (it’s a thin, almost watery texture) or flavors. I get some grass and agave on hen nose and agave on he taste and finish. No real burn and the finish is on the shorter side of things.
