Familia es Mas Vida Blanco

81 PUNTAJE

“Owners swear it’s additive-free, but leans very sweet for a blanco. Enjoyed the repo a bit more.”

Brahman Mex Blanco Artesanal

84 PUNTAJE

“Got to taste this along with some unreleased aged expressions. While this was solid, those others blew me away. Excited for that this brand has on the horizon.”

Lost Lore NASA Liquor Single Barrel Añejo

80 PUNTAJE

“First Lost Lore expression I didn’t absolutely love. Super dark and bitter,l; agave is way in the background. I’m a huge fan of the brand, but this one didn’t do it for me.”

Siembra Azul Suro Extra Añejo

91 PUNTAJE

“This is superb. Tried from a friend, so no idea about “value.” But holy sh*t I love this. Score doesn’t reflect how much I loved this XA, as it would be over a thousand dollars to pick up a bottle 13 years later.”

Leyenda de Mexico Reposado

Lost Lore Westbound Reposado

92 PUNTAJE

“Much heavier than the other beer barrel expressions Lost Lore has put out. The stout influence is strong in the best possible way with a finish that lasts foreeeeever. Kudos for doing something very different.”

Cierto Tequila Private Collection Extra Añejo

83 PUNTAJE

“Good, but feels a bit muted compared to the other fantastic 1146 XAs. And that price, ooof.”

Carreta de Oro Añejo

87 PUNTAJE

“Score is for the old frosted round bottle. Did not see a lot number, so not sure what year it’s from. But it’s a really nice añejo; glad I picked it up.”

Cierto Tequila Private Collection Añejo

87 PUNTAJE

“Not the most complex, but a nice, easy drinking Añejo with that slight 1146 funk. Very bottle-servicey tall elegant bottle raised the price a ton. It used to be obscene, but has recently come down to about half off at many places in Los Angeles. Did they lose their distributor? Is the brand going belly-up? At this new price point, it’s a must try.”

Villa Lobos Extra Añejo

91 PUNTAJE

“Tasted in a flight with all of their core lineup and this was by far the most complex and enjoyable. Gonna have to seek out a bottle.”

Lost Lore Hasta La Raiz Collaboration Blanco

“Was hesitant to purchase the ninth(?) blanco expression from Lost Lore, but I’m really glad I did. Such a beautiful tequila.”

Conejo Salvaje Reposado

82 PUNTAJE

“A nice, easy drinking reposado, but similar to other 1480s insomuch as it leans heavily towards the sweet side. While most there are organic and additive-free, they must be doing something to enhance the sweetness (perhaps treating the barrels with agave syrup?) To be clear, I don’t mind it, as it’s not that artificial, cloying sensation, but the sweetness is indeed dominant.”

Don Fulano 20 Aniversario Sherry Cask Añejo

91 PUNTAJE

“Finishing in sherry casks seems very en vogue these days, so I had to revisit this. This one isn’t just finished in the sherry casks, but exclusively aged in them. And man, do they impart a ton of deep, rich flavors. The agave is pushed to the background a bit, but it’s certainly still there. Really just a wonderful añejo and now I’ll be picking up a backup bottle for sure.”
