Solid offering from the altamar group. I’m not a huge 1137 fan but this works well for cocktails.

Guess I’m in the minority here but lots of pepper on nose and palette. Solid budget bottle

Similar profile as the base blanco. Cooked agave, citrus, funk, light astringent, minerality with new flavor profiles arriving from the 5 month aging process in ex-Jack Daniel’s barrels. Caramel, vanilla, I even got some nuttiness which I was not expecting. For the price, this repo provides a tremendous value proposition.

The smell had a bit of lactic that was the unpleasant taste and smell. The taste was also just funky in a bad way. Bad bottle ?
