2023 - yeyo produced 12 single barrel reposados, each aged in a different rum barrel. so far, I've tried 4 of these expressions = 2,4,5 and 11, and for at least a couple of them I'm rating high 80s. I will try all 12 expressions and adjust my rating accordingly. note, i wish TMM had a way to rate all 12 individually
Of the 12 Single Barrel Repos made for various retailers, I have tried three of them. Lot 4 (Old Town) is 85, Lot 1 (Sip Tequila) is 85, and Lot 6 (Sip Tequila) is 86
Barrel 5/12 Bottle #245 The Tequila Collective Barrel Nose: Warm, round aromas. Tropical spices. Cinnamon, cloves, allspice and nutmeg. Minty thyme and vanilla. A tiny ticke of white pepper. A touch of mineral sharpness as found in naturally occurring spring mineral waters. Banana cream pie, grilled pineapple and cherry lifesavers. Flavors: Unctuous sweetness coats the palate. Back palate pepper heat amps up. A nutty almond praline vibe. Frolicsome florals (gardenias?) and fruit. The tropical spices provide some balance and structure. Finish: A fun profile that will appeal to many. Be prepared for sweetness and rum nuances.
I believe 12 single barrels (rum) lote 100 blanco fill. I tasted 2 barrel lots from Sip tequila. One slightly darker then the other. Both nose, was excellent. Sweet, tropical notes. Light mouth feel. Pleasant finish.
Barrel # 5: Banana on the nose. What a unique nose. Tropical. Some barrel notes on the palate. Pepper on the finish. This is a nice sipper. I like everything but the price.
Single Barrel # 2 LA Tequila Club/Roadrunner exclusive. This is the infamous "Red Velvet" bottle. Aged in rum casks and you can tell. Agave joined by tropical notes of plantains, coconut, dried fruit, interestingly different, yet delicious.
