04/2024- tasting this at Teos in san jose del cabo because partida was the best brand they had here. nose has a lot of alcohol and otherwise a little bland. easy to sip with a short finish.
Solid tequila for a cristalino. I still smell some agave. It is sweet to the taste with a lot of body. Overall my only throw back is the price, it is a little too expensive for a Reposado Cristalino
sipped some of this at Teos in downtown San Jose del Cabo Jan 11, 2024. Salud! it was the best tequila they had at that bar. converted some people who were ordering crappy tequila. it had been awhile since I'd had this tequila. it's a decent sipper. a little sweet not overly complex. salud!
Aroma: cooked agave, orange, leather, whiskey, and hints of vanilla. Flavor: leather, dry soil, oak, cinnamon, and clove. Finish: dry oaky finish that lingers for a while. Very easy to drink, slight burn in the chest. For $55, this is a very solid Reposado
tried at the cellar 2023 easy sipper. points deducted for price
tried at chris porters 10/2023 very nice, easy sipping tequila. well balanced barrel notes, vanilla, some pepper on finish.
Warming initial nasal impact with slight prickle (45% ABV). Aroma hits with dark cherry, dried fruit, barrel spice, cinnamon, oak, prune, caramel. Some trace of orange blossom. Buttery mouthfeel with sufficient alcohol. The dried fruit, prune, cherry and barrel spice hit first on the flavor followed by whiskey notes, oak, orange peel and caramel. The 45% ABV carry these flavors on a med long finish. The $120-130 price point isn't bad (these days) for a special release sherry finished anejo. Very enjoyable

Despite the obstacles 2020 brought, sales of tequila have soared. To look at exactly how the industry changed in 2020, I asked a panel of tequila experts to weigh in.
Lou does a video review of the sherry cask finished special releases from Partida.
Tequila Partida has promoted its chief operating officer to the role of CEO, with founder Gary Shansby stepping back from day-to-day responsibilties.
Tequila has changed a lot since the early days. Most producers have switched from time consuming, old-school methods to high-efficiency production. But has this trend helped or harmed the overall quality of tequila?

This more than doubles the salesforce representing Tequila Partida in the United States, increasing Partida coverage in the top tequila consumption markets and expanding to other markets previously unrepresented.
For plenty of folks – usually those of the frozen margarita-mixing, salt lime shot-swilling variety – it’s hard to actually like tequila, but by the time you’re done listening to Maestro Tequilero Jose Valdez talk, you kind of just wish you did.
When it comes to selling tequila these days, retailers and restaurateurs have little trouble getting product to move off the shelves and from the back bar. But the question is: which products?
J. Gary Shansby, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Tequila Partida ? the world’s top-rated tequila ? announced today the immediate promotion of Steve Lauth, Partida’s Director of Finance, to Vice President, Operations.
On the nose, herbal and grassy, very light overall with some agave and a clean minerality. Across the palate the flavor is nice and citrusy, with some agave sweetness, somewhat muted and thin. The finish is dry, with some vegetal and black pepper, and an alcohol bite that becomes less pleasant the longer it remains.
