Strong agave flavor with vegetal and earthy and a little bit of minerality. Good stuff.

I must be a Michoacán agave fan

All around great. I just ate spicy food and I’m getting a lot of heat and pepper in the taste. The aroma and finish are brilliant. I should try this again away from dinner!

This is really good. I liked it

Lagrimas del Valle Blanco La Loma sample from kyle koskey 46 abv michoacán agave This expression really works for me. Some of my favorite things = cascahuin profile, michoacán agave, high-proof, tahona crushed (at least partially), wood fermentation and fern with fibers (partially). my favorite profile = anise, mint, minerality, agave, pepper, spice. Delicious!

Aroma: raw material, earth, dirt, Flavor: very viscous, a wonderful mouthfeel, savory- some olive notes- this definitely is a sessional. Aromas and flavors pop from first sip to last.

The aroma of minerality is unmistakable with agave and subtle sweet potato essence, accompanied by a hint of vanilla, a touch of mint, and a gentle nuttiness with wood undertones. There is a trace of salt, though it never leans into brininess. On the palate, cedar emerges first, distinct and ever-present. Crisp mint and lemongrass follow behind minerality and citrus. The cooked agave is present in scent and taste. A warm, roasted pecan note develops gradually, adding a toasted quality. The finish lingers with lime citrus and a fresh green note, both carried by the persistent minerality. A touch of dryness appears toward the end. “vine, vi, conquisté” should be the motto of this particular release.

Vessel: CT Jarrito Nose: Minerality, Stone Fruit, Agave, Anise, Citrus, Grass Palate: Concrete, Jalapeno, Grass Finish: Agave, Anise, Stonefruit, Herbal, Hay This brand seems to knock it out of the park everytime. I think this might be my favorite Lagrimas Blanco since the Palo Verde. Great addition to the line up! I'm excited to try the Reposado soon

Tasted at Sip Tequila Fest

Very nice nose of agave, floral notes, ripe fruits, vegetal notes. Citrusy. On the palate sweet cooked agave, minty, vegetal notes, hay. Very pleasant finish. Great viscosity. Very close to Palo Verde and I could pick either as the top for this brand.

Tons of agave with some pepper, citrus, minerals that is earthy. Very delicious. Tried at Sabor Y Cultura 26.

Wow. Take your time with this one, and you will be rewarded. The extra ABV absolutely works, and I really wish the 46% - 48% range was more popular among producers. The nose brings a strong agave flavor mixed with cinnamon, mint, and a hint of basil and oregano. The palate delivers everything the nose promises, and the added ABV dials the intensity to the perfect amount. The finish is long without overstaying its welcome. The $55-60 price tag is where the score takes a slight hit.

The aromas are bright and layered. Citrus, pine, cinnamon, cooked agave. Very enjoyable to smell. Sweet and zesty cooked lemon flavors lead the way into sweet agave, with a warm or spicy finish. Lágrimas is one of my favorites to pour rn. Such a great job highlighting terroir and the agave that comes with it, not to mention the work they do to extract, ferment and cook these plants. Incredible stuff.

Strong agave and spice flavor. Some heat and sweetness in the finish.

Nose: sweet minerally cinnamon that almost gets tomatoey (in other words…cooked agave), very mild yeasty aloe Vera botanical note. Cane sugar juice. Wet concrete, sweet nopales Palate: damn. This is so good. Sorry back to the notes. Sweet Cardamom, sweetened Earl grey tea/bergamot, Finish: the color grey, a watermelon/cucumber note, wet concrete. Short but wonderful. Overall: I like Cascahuin fine. Wild Common blanco was a great tequila but kind of a let down for me and was quite expensive. Cascahuin Blanco is great tequila too and I like it more than Wild Common blanco but still feels too expensive at $45-$50 here in Austin. This bottle though is amazing. Work of art Valle tequila and for me is the first from NOM1123 that really did the trick.

Taste like Montagave, with a bit more bite

Cooked agave and citrus aroma. Taste follows with a minty/herbal now and minerality. Very nice, lingering finish without being hot.

This is one of the best blancos I’ve ever had, which isn’t surprising coming out of 1123. It’s an absolute agave bomb, with tons of additional character and complexity. I had previously thought that the El Sabino harvest was my favorite single-origin from Lágrimas, but after having a few glasses of this, La Loma has more nuance to it in a way that’s incredibly appealing.

Smells like caramel A bit spicy Overall it’s a bit too spicy for me, distracting from the taste

Very clean tasting. A very solid tequila all around

Nose: Butter cream, with whiffs of cinnamon, melon and a raw agave. Initial palate: creamy cooked agave that blankets the tongue with a rich viscous mouthfeel. Finish: Cooked agave tapers into a more raw fruit/agave finish, with a subtle astringency that builds, into a strong unripe fruit (mango?) crescendo, but not sense at all of being overproof.

I am a huge fan of the La Loma repo but the plata ain’t for me. I’m trying to like it but something is just off. The aroma is wonderful I’ll say. There’s some sweetness there that fades into something undesirable to me. Doesn’t make a good margarita either. My last tequila run I got this and fortaleza repo and I’m not impressed with either. I’ll keep sipping on them tho, may up the score later.

Agave, pepper, and mineral taste on the palate from start to finish. Great profile!

Nose: cooked agave, citruses, anise, sweet potato, cinnamon, herbaceous, minerality, brine, pepper, olive, pine/woods, Palate: brine, sweet agave, baking spices, cinnamon vegetal, citrus, fruits, nutty, pepper

Similar to El Sabino, but a hair sweeter! In a good way! Strong agave forward, mineral, wet cut grass, pepper, citrus, light earthiness! It’s amazing! Get it, try it, enjoy it neat! Bought on Hi-proof for $65!
