Cazcanes No. 7 Rosa Añejo

91 SCORE

“Agave swap sample Nose: oak, cooked agave, plum, strawberry jam, hint of earth Taste: oak, cooked agave, dried berry, barrel spice Finish: ripe cherry, strawberry jam, cinnamon and spice, slight oak This takes their Anejo to a new depth of flavor. On the nose you get a hint of the surprise that awaits your taste buds and on the sip you get that comforting oak and barrel char you know from Cazcanes Anejo mixing with that berry/jam fruit flavor. The finish just stays and allows the depth of the fruit to come thru as the oak fades.”

Legado del Banquero Blanco

82 SCORE

“Nose: cooked agave, earth, citrus Taste: cooked agave, mineral, citrus, black tea, black pepper Finish: herbal, peppery, maybe slight mint Not sure what the price point will be on this yet but it tastes like a quality well made tequila. It is on the herbal/earthy side of the taste spectrum with some citrus and pepper peaking thru. I would put this in the 35-45 price range and absolutely use it for sipping or making drinks. ”
