When I first bring it to the nose, I get light nuttiness, honey, caramel, wood, lime, and a soft fruitiness (possibly lychee). Sharp, spiky ethyl and petrichor add a more pronounced edge. On the palate, the profile becomes spicy, floral, and citrus-forward, with lemon and lime accompanied by a very subtle white floral note. Nuttiness and anise also emerge, but the anise is interesting here; it comes across richer and rounder than its usual sharper, more earthy tone I get. The finish is light, with lingering fruit and citrus, a trace of floral character, and a soft barrel sweetness. Cooked agave remains present as everything fades.

The most reliable agave awards, with blind judging, praised these tequilas.
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.
High-proof tequilas, once only for hardcore drinkers, are now being released at a steady pace. Why?
