Kenzie Lau 4.0

A refined Agave Spirit from NOM 1137. Its scent opens with agave, citrus, herbs, and spices. The body presents cooked agave, green bell pepper, and lime. The finish is a medium-length blend of creaminess and spice, featuring black pepper, sea spray, and metal. April 2016 / April 2017 / February 2019 / December 2021 / May 2022

Jami Mcgee 3.5

Lots of vanilla on the nose, along with some burnt sugar crème brûlée crust. The taste is also a bit sweet with vanilla, metallic vegetal agave, and a pleasant burn that spreads across the mouth. Very enjoyable overall. B+.

Douglas Whitlock 2.8

Smooth and not very hot. It's sweet with plenty of vegetal notes and just a hint of pepper at the end.

Giovanni Griffin 3.3

A bit of pepper at the start, followed by a sweet, mellow vegetal finish.

Tyson Hampton 3.5

Excellent in a margarita, particularly when enjoyed at Torchy's.

Virgie Hiatt 3.0

Pleasing flavor, not overwhelming.
