Sampled at Sabor y Cultura Chicago 2026. Another Rosa I surprisingly enjoyed! Wine aging isn’t usually for me, but this was good.
All of these special release never fail to impress. Nose I get a fruit maybe cherry and raspberry with nutmeg and a little cinnamon. Taste cooked agave cinnamon spice and a touch of Carmel. The finish is long oaky with some dry tannic notes. All I can say is wow
Ok this is amazing and special. Nose is cooked agave with a nice oak note. It has a nice citrus note and an earthy botanical note. Taste cooked agave orange peel oaky with a nice pepper with a gin type note that I can’t explain. Finish that gin note with agave pepper and a sweetness that is amazing!
This is a really well balanced Anejo! It’s more on the fruit heavier side than I like but I will happily finish this bottle. The agave is there but the since it’s aged up to 22 months in a series of wine barrels, untoasted French oak barrels, toasted French oak barrels, and cognac casks, the fruit is the main flavor presence to me.
The Tequila 2025 stats are in and this is what they reveal: Our users are drawn to products that highlight craft and unique production processes.
Tequila brands – united through The Gente Buena Foundation’s Good Agave Pledge – announced their commitment to improving the difficult economic and environmental challenges faced by tequila workers in Mexico’s agave plant-producing regions.
While aficionados tend to prefer blanco tequilas, and imbibers of dark spirits usually gravitate towards añejos, the reposado category is often overlooked.
