Tasted side x side with El Luchador, another 55% ABV blanco from NOM 1480. Once the mouth is acclimated to the high proof this blooms with large amounts of agave sweetness and some bright, very forward vegetal notes. This reminds me of some high proof tasted at the distillery on a visit this spring. By comparison the EL is more oxidized having been open for some time and 3/4 full. Agave and some anise and a long buzzy 110 finish. Puro 110 is fresher and has some underlying roast agave that I don't get with EL.
Thanks Bob Wolter
