    “Subtle agave, dried fruit and nut mix. highlights of vanilla and carmel. It's a nice after dinner sipper. ”

    “One of the best Blanco's. Felipe is incredible. My partner and I have been doing some blind tastings and this is one of the ones we can always tell that it's out of el pandillo. Wonderful agave, sweetness, minerality, a little brine. Just awesome.”

    “I love this Blanco. Unbelievably creamy mouth feel. Great agave, citrus, vegetal, and mint. It's a little pricey but absolutely wonderful. I will definitely support this new label and they are growing their own agave, so even better.”

    “A beautiful expression from ocho. It's floral, grassy, herbaceous, a little bit of brine and mint. And of course, that cooked agave is incredible. I could smell and sip this forever.”

    “Decent mixing tequila. Used to be my go to mixing tequila, until I found suerte and arrete. Very floral and a little too sweet and you lose the agave a bit. ”

    “I love don fulano and the Fonseca family and their history. Their lineup is one I always recommend in the liquor store. Soft fruit, floral and agave nose. The pallet is delicate with an agave bomb. Showcasing notes of pineapple, minerality and some wonderful rye spice on the backend. ”

    “The nose on this is delightful. Wonderful agave, with some citrus and grassy notes that dance beautifully together. The pallet drinks like a 100 proof. It's hot but the agave is sweeter, some pineapple and mint shine through. That luscious grass helps round it out. Lovely Blanco.”

    “Agave on the nose, not much else comes through. On the pallet it's sweet agave followed immediately by ground black pepper, mud and ethanol. The finish is ethenol. It just stays with you, not necessarily in a good way.”

    “The nose wasn't bad. It smelt a little sweet, a wee bit of vanilla. The pallet is when it all goes off. Immediate sweet tart and cotton candy flavor. Finally some agave comes through and then you are left with a sweet astringency that just sits on the back of your tongue. I'll pass on this one.”

    “I can see this one not being for everyone as it does have a bit of ethenol on the backend. I think this is one of the best values. Great agave, minerality, citrus, grassy and just a little creamy on the pallet.”

    “Great Repo. Agave on the nose with some notes of butter and oak. On the palate some cinnamon comes through with carmel to structure that great agave flavor. If this wasn't so expensive it would be one I would constantly go to.”

    “This is a very interesting take on a repo. A repo for Blanco lovers. she uses all stainless steel so there is nothing else touching the agave. The barrels are well overused, so she is adding some structure without adding too much flavor. Definitely one to try as it is quite unique. Agave is the star of the show with a little saline, brine and intermittent notes of citrus. It's almost an agave dirty martini.”

    “Wow, this is incredible. Open the bottle up, pour a glass neat, take a sip, wait a few minutes and take another sip. Enjoy how complex and breathtaking this expression is. At first I got a lot of vegetal and floral notes on the nose. it moved into a sweet caramelized pineapple and agave with some melon, citrus sweetness. The palate is very soft. The extra proof enhances the agave and it dances on the palate with some light pineapple, bitter orange, white pepper and floral notes. The finish lasts and lasts with one of the most delightful and long lasting finishes ”
