Don Fulano 20 Aniversario Sherry Cask Añejo

90 SCORE

“A tour de force of the barrel-aging capabilities of 1146. So much more complexity than the baseline anejo. Pretty special expression. ”

Don Fulano Imperial (5 yr)

86 SCORE

“Picks up right where the anejo leaves off. Comparatively dry compared to other XAs, even in the additive-free category, in a really good way. ”

Don Fulano Blanco Fuerte (100 proof)

Arette Artesenal Reposado Suave

82 SCORE

“The aging really muted the nose compared to the blanco. Very prominent flavour notes from the barrel that come dangerously close to muting the agave flavour. Really solid reposado but I’m just not huge on that age. ”

Arette Artesenal Blanco Suave

82 SCORE

“Draws the line directly between the base line blanco and the artisanal fuerte for me. Tons of flavour but not an overly long finish. Slightly more citrusy than I expected. ”

Caballito Cerrero Chato Reposado

92 SCORE

“Well balanced between agave and barrel notes. It’s rare to have a reposado keep this degree of complexity and have the flavours come in waves. ”

“It’s going to be hard to get away from still strength aged agave spirits after this one. ”
