Aroma: tropical fruit, smoke, earth, minerality, grap, plum, grass, mint Flavor: minerality, smoke, honey, herbal, mint Finish: short and earthy I bought a bottle for around msrp but I think it’s still priced high even considering the limited amount of bottles

Interesting blend of flavors. Very light cooked agave notes. Delicate flavor profile

Great Joven expression! This profile is characterized by its fruity & floral nuances. In the aroma; pitted/stone fruits & tropical fruits (melon/pineapple) along with a sweet caramelized agave flavor and sprinkle of spices/herbal/oaky touches. Very lovely bouquet Taste is very friendly with complexity spikes from beginning to end. It maintains its fruity/floral profile, with additional flavors of agave, caramel, barrel spice, & herbs. Texture is very elegant and settles perfectly. $$$ Price is the only issue

Fruity and floral nose. Agave, fresh melon, pineapple, oak, with clove and some light citrus rind bitters—all balanced nicely. Light profile and dangerously easy sipper, especially for the price. Speaking of which, it’s a hefty price that dings the rating. But I hear there’s 700 bottles so that’s where the premium comes from. Salud!

Stone fruit on the nose along with some very delicate floral notes coming from the bottom of the jarrito in addition to cascading barrel notes from the two aged products in this blend. Claiming to feature some of the oldest tequila produced by the brand and then not stating anything about the Añejo or Reposado components make that label statement more hyperbole than fact though the brand HAS been in business since the later oughts. I should go look at the Siembra web page to see what info is there. Very busy in the mouth at just 40% ABV this settles nicely on a barrel spice and fruit compote profile with some moderate oak and a nice wash of agave sweetness that stays on top of the light viscosity. A nice center tongue buzz adds some punch to the finish and rounds out this interesting release. Per the usual with current releases of this type the price is a serious drawback and this rating takes a hit as a result.

Lote: SAJOV2232, Batch 01, bottled on 19/04/22, tasted on 5-3-24. Color: light yellow. Aroma: light cooked agave, light acidity, hint of citrus, light hay, hint of herbaceousness, after 15 minutes a light white grape juice aroma emerges, hint of earthiness, after 45 minutes of being served the grape-y aroma becomes sweeter like overripe dark red grape skin, which also makes the cooked agave aroma seem sweeter. Palate: confirms aromas perceived, once oxygenated the white grape juice sensation instead of tart is sweet on the palate too, good sweet sour and acidic balance. Ends a tad dry. Finish is medium to medium long, light cooked agave, light raw agave, light hay, although citrus aromas & flavors were not very apparent, it ends slightly tangy.

Unlike anything I've tried. Level of complexity is beautiful. Nose: Orange peel, anise, floral & peaches... Tropical background. As for taste: Tropical & pitted fruits, cinnamon, mild heat, along with a caramel/chocolate palate. Samples don't give you what a full bottle does - with that said, a solid 89/100. Second best Joven I've ever tried!

Lovely joven. Lots of natural sweetness. Made with 11, 9, and 8 year old agave.

Great joven. Aroma and flavor really good. Lighter finish. Knocked off a few points on the price. Blue Weber agave blend with maturation ages of 11, 9 and 8yrs!

Nice like nose with a tropical fruit pineapple. Cooked agave. Cooked agave. Tropical fruit. Subtle oak. Sweet water. Finish. Nice medium dry finish. Slight tongue tingle. 2 ounces sample supplied by my tequila God fairy. As mentioned the price detracts from the enjoyment an excellent tequila but I feel this trend is getting out of hand.
