Volcan de Mi Tierra Reposado

“Nose has a lot of mineralogy, agave sweetness, sort of like celery, melon Taste has less flavor than i was expecting based on the nose, kind of basic tequila nothing pops out to me. Finish is ok - nice tingle linger”

Tequila Ocho Plata Puntas - 2021 La Ladera

91 SCORE

“Would get more points if this wasn’t a one off but holy cow this is one of the best Blanco’s I’ve had. Nose is sweet - agave floral and mineral slight eucalyptus? Taste is very nice - warm, viscous, reminds me of 1123 plata but with some highland sweetness - has that minerality, definitely agave sweetness, light citrus and some vegetal notes. a true beaut.”

El Ateo Antimateria Extra Añejo

84 SCORE

“Soooo wanted to love this because the anejo is awesome for me. The extra anejo is very bourbon note forward, it’s almost like drinking buffalo trace. Not my favorite, the agave gets lost in the barrel notes. ”
