Lote 1 April 2025 14 months in buffalo trace barrels, 4 char Nose is fantastic - barrel spices, caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, cinnamon, agave, bananas, and if u leave it sitting long enough, you can get some of that anise and mint that's present in their blanco Palate is similar to the nose, with mild whiskey and oak. Finish is warm with barrel spice and mildly dry, whiskey finish Overall, this is a well-balanced, excellent anejo

Very well balanced. some pepper on end and a warm heat I increased my rating from 88 to 90 excellent value at $80 10/2024 tasted blind in the TMM high-proof blinds rated 89 pts not sure which lote we tried
Aroma: a lot of barrel- feel like I’m standing in a barrel room Flavor: a lot of barrel notes, toffee, dried fruit, stone fruit: cherry, some orange blossom-hints of leather - a little spice from the higher ABV but drinks really nicely. Finish: Wow! The longest finish- all the flavors linger on the palate- a lot of viscosity. Definitely a special sipper
Thick, rich, and wonderfully complex. Raw honey, cacao, barrel spice, and cooked agave all masterfully synced in harmony. This is some of the finest tequila on earth.
Lovely aromas of agave, minerals, cinnamon, cooked apples, caramel, and oak. The higher ABV delivers a pleasant flavor punch leading with barrel spice, followed by sweet and fruity notes, finishing with a warm tingle that begs another sip. Bottling at 47% ABV was a magical decision.
High-proof tequilas, once only for hardcore drinkers, are now being released at a steady pace. Why?
While aficionados tend to prefer blanco tequilas, and imbibers of dark spirits usually gravitate towards añejos, the reposado category is often overlooked.
