Buscadores Reposado

89 SCORE

“A really nice treat. Lots of agave on this right upfront on the nose and initial sip. From there hints of black pepper, caramel and a ton of cooked agave keep coming. An exceptional finish with the right amount of heat. Could sip this all night. If you see this, don’t pass it up. An old school gem.”

Amazing story behind this and a great tribute to the amazing Remy Newland. Look to the club members for their tasting notes as they picked it out, I was just honored to drink it with them! ”

Yeyo Añejo - Mission 1530

90 SCORE

“Wow, this is really well done by Yeyo, Sergio Jason and crew. This started at NOM 1414 with Yéyo’s already super clean highlands profile of cooked agave, citrus, minerality, floral notes…Then they took it into Columbian Black Strap molasses rum casks for 11 months before finishing it in Willet bourbon barrels. I got this wild tropical brightness that almost shouldn’t work in tequila… papaya, banana, melon, molasses, caramel… but somehow it still drinks like tequila instead of anover-oaked bomb. The bourbon finish rounds it out without burying the agave. It’s super clean, I think I used the word “elegant” when sipping it. An amazing tequila for a great cause. I can get behind that! ”

Patrón 100 Silver

86 SCORE

“High-proof, tahona-crushed blancos are my lane, and this one can definitely hang. Bright citrus up front, that classic clean Patrón profile, plus some minerality and a cool chalky/coco powder thing going on that I actually really liked. A nice medium finish with some salinity. Overall, this is well done and feels like a smart move by Patron to bring some aficionados back in after killing off the Roca line. For around $50 it’s really good value and I’d definitely drink it again. ”

Siembra Valles Ancestral Blanco

93 SCORE

“Legitimately spectacular. No other way to put it. Amazing nose of cooked agave sweetness, honey, hints of smoke/camp fire, a little citrus. Lots going on here. It gets better with every sip and the longer it opens up. Much more of the notes from the nose. For lack of a better term, it almost tastes like a slightly sweet mezcal (in a very good way). It’s vegetal with that 1123 minerality in the DNA. A great finish with a subtle smokiness that adds character, doesn’t over power. As traditional as it gets. Might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I love it. ”

Fortaleza Reposado - Winter Blend 2025

87 SCORE

“A nice nose with some plum, fig, baking spices and wood. The palate has a burst of alcohol up front that dissipates pretty quickly followed by some raisin, cinnamon and caramel. It’s very oily and has a nice easy finish that keeps you wanting some more. Not rating “value” on what the 3rd party market dictates because that has nothing to do with Fortaleza as the brand. The wholesale price and MSRP aren’t all that nuts and based off of those I think the value is appropriate for this (knowing full well that no one is going to get it at those) Overall, I liked this one. Would I go crazy trying to hunt one down (or any of the WB’s)? No. But it is definitely a high quality and unique repo.”

Ocho Tequila Plata

91 SCORE

“AMM 2025 Blanco Blind Tasting Kit: Aroma of black pepper, mint, celery, cooked agave, minerals with some bell pepper, maybe a hint of green olive. Smells clean. Really nice aroma. On the palate, much of the same mintiness cooked agave, black pepper, a little bit of honey with a good amount of minerality and wet stone. A nice oily mouth feel which seems indicative of good quality. The finish is lengthy with some pepper mid heat pretty lengthy overall seems like a high-quality Tequila. 2nd day- Aroma still really good. Likely best of all. Palate still really good with a very pleasant finish. I like this one a lot. ”

Fortaleza Blanco

90 SCORE

“Wow this is a delicious one! Fermented with fibers and distilled to proof. The amount of cooked agave sweetness on the nose and palette is insane. A tasty finish that’s very easy to drink. I’d absolutely love it if it were a little higher proof but overall this is really well done.”
