Lote 1 Bottle 1630/10,000 I know. I’m a little late to the party. But it was worth the wait to finally get the G4 Madera. Aromas: Freshly milled cedar sawdust. Finely ground white pepper. Mellow vanilla oil. Citrus. Light colored tree fruit. A slightly sour apple cider tartness. Tropical floral notes weave in and out. Flinty minerals, mint, cinnamon and cloves. Felipe’s signature abundance of sweet agave. Just a trace of lactic funk. Flavors: Thick and buttery. Briny. Oily sweetness softly washes over the tongue. A hint of maple. Vibrant clove, cinnamon and pepper heat build in intensity. The fruit, spice and texture embrace the ethanol, engaging the entire palate. Finish: This has a round richness that slowly melts away on the finish. August 26, 2023 A quick “compare and contrast”. Comparing G4 Madera Blanco lote #2 to lote #1 G4 Madera. Both bottles were opened within the last 48 hours. No one will be disappointed with lote #2. There are far more similarities than not. Some subtle differences at most… To me, Lote #2 has a little more sour apple cider note, a slightly sharper mineral snap in the nosing and a stray canned pear aroma. There might be a tinge more intensity in the heat component. A little less anise, swapped out for a tantalizing touch of salty butterscotch. The deep well water might be a little more prominent in lote #2. Which is my favorite? It would be like King Solomon ruling which baby should be cut in half. Can’t do it. I love them both. Both solidly in the 90 range.
