Cascahuín Plata 48%
89 SCORE“Needs plenty of air. Neck pour is a not an accurate representation of what this bottle truly is. This is a great pour but out of the Caschuin blancos, I’m a Tahona (ideally still strength) man. Aroma: 22/25 Black pepper, agave, citrus peels. Palate: 27/30 SILKY. Medium to high mouth feel. Rich deep cooked agave. Lime juice and lemon peels. Proof creates some tongue numbing. Finish: 23/25 Long and deep Value: 7/10 ($60) ”

Ocho Tequila Reposado
88 SCORE
“Aroma: 23/25 Sweet gentle vanilla, lemon citrus peels, green apple. Aroma is a touch subtle than I would generally prefer, but what is there is pleasant. Palate: 26/30 Cooling and with a medium to low mouth feel. Clean and crisp. Warm weather repo for sure. Cooked agave, butter, mandarin, lemon/lime citrus combo, vanilla. Delicious and very drinkable. The kind of bottle you could finish with a group of friends in a night with ease. Finish: 22/25 Clean and crisp like the palate. Nice length. Doesn’t demand attention and pleasant. Value: 7/10 ($50) Overall: A quality repo that is delicious without demanding attention. Very drinkable and something I image most would easily enjoy. ”
