Nice clean nose with lemon rind black pepper and a hint of mint. Really solid flavor with much of the same characteristics of the nose. Nice mouthfeel. A clean finish with a little heat from the high proof.

This 94 proof plata has a clean nose with aromas of buttery / creamy cooked agave, citrus zest, minerals, faint honeysuckle and a hint of white pepper. On the palate I taste cooked agave, orange zest, white pepper and some minerals with a touch of salinity. The alcohol is present but it’s clean and it helps to deliver a pleasant combination of flavors. Overall this is a good clean high proof plata that has some nice intensity without being overwhelming or too strong. It’s also very affordable for a higher proof spirit. This could be an introductory high proof sipper or it could elevate your tequila cocktails. Either way I recommend you try it for yourself.
