Vessel: Glencairn Nose: Malolactic, Yeast, Brine, Almond, Agave Palate: Salt, Minerality, Herbal, Anise, Floral Finish: Agave, Cream, Vanilla, Almond, Naturally, I have to compare this to the Caballito Cerrero Chato Reposado 46. The difference is clear as day. For me, the lactic notes are much more prevalent on this one. There's maybe a bit more complexity on this one as well. I think the azul agave allows you to experience more transparently, the changes that occur in the aging process; where as the Chato seems to blend so seamlessly with the barrel aging process that it's slightly harder pick out the specific nuances that occur during aging. Although, I personally prefer the Chato 46 Repo, this is still another home run for me from El Caballito!
