“Another excellent release by Doug at the Agave Social Club and Siempre. Across the nose and palate I got nice hints of caramel, brown sugar, honey and pepper. The barrel influence is certainly there but the presence of cooked agave still comes through. Doesn’t drink like a typical high proof.”

Siembra Valles Aniversario Tequila Capon Blanco

“Overall - This has a lot of complexity if you sit with it and enjoy it. Every sip something different comes out for me. I wish I had a backup, this is a tequila to enjoy. It is on the expensive side so that’s the rub. Nose - cooked agave is prominent, a bit olive/brine and an occasional undertone of butter comes through every couple of swirls and smells. Which is odd combo so either I’m picking up something that isn’t there or something unique. It is pleasant regardless. Taste - cooked agave is the prominent flavor, some citrus on mid palette and some black pepper on the finishing palette. Finish - The finish is where this really shines. It is creamy and a little bit viscous and lingers. ”

“Vegetal and peppery aroma. Citrus/honey with an agave pepper back end flavor. A good simple tequila, not complex or flashy, just good and an easy sipper.”

“Nose: alcohol, medicinal, light agave, pepper, not sure how to describe it but it has a scent of holy water. Palate: more of that holy water flavor, medicinal, soapy, light smoke and agave. It’s bitter, like if they used agave that wasn’t ready. Finish: short, alcohol/medicinal/soapy parts linger for a bit Free bottle from a distributor ”

“NOM: 1123. Sip Tequila (good people) are deeply discounting the previous expression - essentially 50% off. Huge bargain for $25 a bottle - stick up. Easy sipper. So much so that I would forgo the ice and hit this one neat. Assume it would mix well. Stick up. ”

“—Nose: From the very first waft you get agave. Initially cooked agave and some sweet sweet potato from the roasted pinas.  Minerality comes through early on. If you pull your nose a little bit away from the glass you get hints of mint. Going back in you start to pick up on vegetal notes, some raw agave. The more you let it sit, you start to get some yeasty notes mixed with some floral notes. Oooh, that makes for an interesting combination. Pleaseant. It’s funny outside of smelling tequila, if you were to tell me to take a sniff of something that had yeasty-floral notes, I would probably pass. With tequila, I’d stick my nose in the glass before you finished your sentence. The longer it sits the more subtle the agave becomes. It’s still there only more subtle, but the floral notes become more prevalent. That yeast is very slight, and doesn’t stand alone. It part of the floral aroma, but not lactic at all. It’s making me question if it’s actual yeast, or just part of the floral aroma. Going to leave it, since I’m getting it. And not overpowering. There’s a lot there, but nothing is really heavy. It is a nicely balanced nose —Palate: On the palate you get the cooked agave. It’s upfront, but not as strong as I thought it would be. The alcohol doesn’t come until the back end. Before that you get some minerals, some fruit—maybe melon. Toward the back end you start to notice the numbing affect from the alcohol. Nice warming, not hot. Some of that Szechuan pepper feeling. Earthy. Very slight sweetness, but it does a lot to round it out and really soften the tequila. This is not oily, but still coats your mouth. Ok, I’ve sat the glass now to write, and just came back after 5 or 6 minutes, and right up from caramel comes in. Definitely more sweetness than before, but still subtle and balanced. That was a pleasant surprise! its —Aftertaste: Decently long. Changes from agave, to mineral, to a long floral-alcohol warmth. Doesn’t burn by the numbing affect last long into the finish. Nothing pushes anything else out of the way. Everything sort of plays nicely together, like well behaved kids on a playground, or a practiced orchestra. —Final thoughts: This is going to sound somewhat simplistic, but this is just a really nice tequila. It really good. And that’s not at all unexpected from Lost Lore or NOM 1414 and Sergio Cruz. That’s why it is somewhat simplistic, what do you expect. But that’s not nothing. A really good tequila isn’t a given. This is. Well made, balance, pleasant nose, palate, and finish. You should buy it, before it’s gone. An you can drink it and feel extra good, supporting a good cause. —The Tequila Note—”
