Agave, mineral, earthy, cinnamon, orange—has its own vibe compared to other brands from 1579.

Cooked agave and minerality on the nose….some oak but not overly present black pepper and some hints of floral ….agave on the mouth with minerality …. medium finish

Aroma: Agave, and a sharp note that reminds me of sourdough bread. Palate: Surprisingly sweet agave, and vanilla bean. Butter, minerals, and citrus. White pepper on the finish. Lingering clove or baking spice note. Verdict: Another stunner from 1579, Terralta might just be the best of the bunch for me. For the $42 I paid for this, it’s almost a steal.

This was a Mexico bottle at 38°/76 proof. The lower proof may be why my score was a bit higher than those that rated the American version. It’s delicious at 38°!

Nose opens with agave, oak and citrus followed by minerals. Aroma carries through to flavor, although oak is not masking anything. Mineral and earth comes through from use of well water. Butterscotch, vanilla, cinnamon highlight the great finish. Felipe does it again. A top reposado for about $49

I ranked this one pretty high but it hit me just right. Very light tinting on this due to the reuse barrels. The nose is full of cooked agave, baking spice, oak, honey, and a faint earthy floral note that kept my face in my glass over and over. Well water influence I'm sure. On the palate the agave and oak dominate, feeding more baking spice. Black pepper, white pepper, wet earth, citrus, vanilla, and stone fruits are all present. The aging managed to leave plenty of alcohol bite without being a flaw- just enough to know it's not messing around. Medium dry finish. Another banger from EP!

Like this repo from an outstanding NOM. Light, sweet agave and vanilla flavors. Well balanced, true to the spirit

Cooked agave, vanilla, caramel, slight oak on the nose. Some floral notes as it opens up. Cooked agave comes through in the flavor with oak, pepper, a bit of mineral. Finish starts buttery and ends long and spicy. One of my favorite reposados without a doubt!

Tons of agave on the nose, unfortunately the oak exposure has muted the flavour that I love so much. This is still an exceptional tequila and anyone will make anyone smile once they try it!!

Vivacious nose. Ripe full agave notes with floral undertones, sweet spices, ripe peaches, and a touch of pungency. Minerals with a touch of edginess. Flavor: Pepper heat, tons of agave, fruit, vanilla, butterscotch and almond cream. A cider sweetness and light salinity. A big hit of anise. Finish lingers. I could drink this all night. These guys makes outstanding juice!

This was a really well balanced Reposado that has a ton of cooked agave character, a thick and oily mouthfeel and a long finish with a great balance of barrel influence and agave kick. The bottle didn't last long.

I was really excited with the nose but was let down with the body and the finish. Lacks a punch and the finish is surprisingly short and underwhelming.

Mexico version, 38 abv: Wet earth, hint of jalapeño, vanilla nose. Nice mouthfeel and minerality. Naturally sweet -Too easy to drink! This is my regular go-to.

Very spicy and a logical extension of the blanco presentation. Lightly aged with oak elements evident this is an agave explosion in your mouth. Not for everyone, this is a big punchy, in your face repo.

Compared Mexican national first lot: LT0001RN38 bottled on 06/07/2017 @ 38% abv. with 4th export lot: LT0004R40 bottled on 12/07/22 @ 40% abv. Points given are for the slightly higher Mexican lot. Mexican national first lot: Color: light yellow. Aroma: cooked agave, vanilla, light aromatic wood notes, acidic, just a touch of mint, citrus, light stone fruit sweetness. Good sweet & sour and citrus balance. Palate: cooked agave, good sweet & sour balance, citrus, aromatic wood, vanilla, after all flavors are balanced the sweet cooked agave becomes sweeter and more intense. Finish is medium to long, the sweet cooked agave, citrus & a slightly bitter note persist. 4th export lot (83 points) compared to Mexican national lot: Color: just a tad of yellow. Aroma: a lot more minty, almost no wood notes, and less sweet. Palate: also a lot more minty, fresh, less wood notes & less sweet. Finish is similar in the way that the cooked agave notes shine through and persist.

Flavor is the best feature of this one. Nice barrel treatment. I think that the quality in the making of this tequila really come through, this is an excellent high quality product for a very reasonable price. It does not have the most complex flavor profile, but I could drink this all the time with no complaints. Thumbs up!

I found this while visiting the Big Island in Hawaii. I’m not really a reposado guy, but I wanted to try this as I saw it in a store. It’s very sweet, I think from the barrel (but I’m not sure because I’ve not yet had the Terralta Blanco) I feel like this is one of those where the barrel influence mellows it out a bit and makes it more approachable. It smells and tastes like agave, and then with the barrel sweetness that I would classify as “just before” Oak flavor. It’s good, not great but also cheap so it gets some points in the great direction all things considered.

Great Tequila out of one of the best distilleries in Mexico. Agave up front with light vanilla and some minerals. This is one of my go-tos and a great bargain and easy to get compared to G4.

ATX Cocina, Austin $16/1oz shot Great aroma, strong agave notes Lots of pepper and burn in the taste and finish. Also had a spicy guacamole so it could have contributed to the burn. May have to revisit.

This is a damn good reposado . Big Agave the perfect amount of oak that still lets the agave shine through with minerals and a hint of jalapeños skin. Buy it when you find it ! Buy 2 !

Aroma: clean and crisp, agave, earthiness and minerals, citrus/salinity. Very fresh smell. Taste, agave, get more of the cinnamon, pepper and barrel influence in taste, has a long finish and a little bit of a punch. Overall very good. Would prefer to drink this in colder weather to warm you up.
