This one is very special. I was one of the first to have Mosto Reposado when I was gifted a bottle on my visit to Nom 1580. I thought the repo was decent.. then I tried the regular strength blanco and was somewhat underwhelmed with it. This high proof absolutely caught me off guard given what I expected.. it simply checks all the boxes. Herbal and Vegetal on the nose, Pepper and sweet agave on the nose and minerality and pepper on the finish. This one really hits the mark. For me, this is where I see Mosto making good on anything that fell short of top tier in the past. Keep it up!

Aroma: Agave intensity abounds, accompanied by the scent of lime. Herbal notes of thyme and sage are present, surrounded by sweet vegetalness. Cinnamon and white pepper add spicy touches, while olive brine provides a subtle salinity. After a few minutes, the aroma of flowers becomes apparent. Taste: Sweet, cooked agave is the star on the palate. Cinnamon and white pepper work harmoniously to offer a pleasant spiciness. The lime scent carries over, providing a citrus punch. A combination of vegetal, herbal, and fruity notes is present, including olives, thyme, sage, and honeydew melon. A nice minerality and creamy texture are also notable. There is also a balancing Floralness that gives this a Finesse to counter all these other Powerful flavors. Finish: The finish is long with Agave and Spice! This is the second time over the last 5 months that I have tasted this at the 106 Proof mark and it has been consistently delicious! When the Salvaje becomes available, it's another High Proof to add to the collection!

Shout out to Oscar Vázquez,this one is special. The agave flavor absolutely dominates in the best way. Bold, concentrated cooked agave up front, layered with citrus and light pepper over a clean mineral backbone. At 53%, it’s incredibly smooth for the proof. One of the smoothest still-strength tequilas I’ve had. Powerful but balanced, vibrant but refined. It genuinely wakes the soul. Easily one of the top high proofs out right now.
