    “I love the texture, the mouth feel. It has nice mint with lots of minerals and earthy dirt soil in a good way.”

    “The aroma is Top Top Top, it’s agave, it’s green oak, vanilla, caramel, pastry. Every time I smell an extra Añejo as green as this one. I know it’s gonna be delicious. The flavour is WOW!! Great feeling the mouth, great body and spice. Natural natural natural. Definitely one of the best extra añejos. Every body should try this”

    “Great! Great! Great! Yes! The aroma is fantastic. It has everything a tequila should possess—it's complex and fully expresses itself in the nosing glass (Jarritos stölzle 45+). You can detect the distinctive Cascahuin fingerprint of their sweet-cooked agave, which comes from their brick ovens. There's a lovely blend of minerality, green notes, sweetness, and dry herbs. Overall, it’s a delight to smell, earning an 8.5/10. Amazing. The flavour matches the aroma perfectly, with added metallic notes that complement the overall structure very well. As soon as the liquid hits my mouth, it checks all the boxes I look for: a nice expansion on my tongue, a coating along the back edges, and a pleasant development from the front to the back of my palate. The texture is outstanding. Despite being 49%, it drinks like it’s only 40%. After my first pour, I find that I enjoy Destino more than 11 Brix. While it's a different tequila, I still plan to do a side-by-side comparison. I’ll update this review after that. ** okay okay side by side 11 Brix and Destino- damn both are delicious, Destino is a bit more gentle and creamy, 11 Brix is more punchy and bold. Those two things I love soooo no winner. Just drink them both.”

    “It was good. I was expecting something too caramel and no body but it surprised me. It does the job, I won’t say it is 100% natural since there is hint of artificial flavours almost at the end but there is a nice balance. I won’t be drinking if I see on the shelf but I will if is next to casa amigos or clase azul.”

    “It has pleasant aromas. Nice leather and wood and a hint of banana. It is a nice combination and definitely dry and herbaceous as a Los Valles tequila Flavour it is exactly what you imagine and nice alcohol sensation not cheap or excessive, the right amount. Also peppery I enjoy its finish. It tick all the right boxes of what añejo is.”

    “Fake caramel all around. It is a bomb of sweetness, not what I enjoy in tequilas. I prefer tequilas that do not have artificial flavours in it”

    “It is prickly in aroma and flavour. Good taste and evolution of flavours. It's more mouth feel than chest. Nice length. It is a unique reposado. Something I haven't had before and more in the feel and sensation than on the flavours. Worth trying for sure”

    “The aroma of walking into a bakery full of sweet cakes. Vanilla and custard I picked more sweet notes than species. The flavour is great. It packs a nice punch with wood notes, leather, and spices, which are different from the nose. Here, there are more species than sweetness. It has a good dry finish. You can taste quality. It's Made properly. In my personal opinion, I like extra anejos that are less wood and more vegetables and fruits. I need agave in them. This is a good tequila to have to finish a nice roast dinner.”

    “What a great extra Anejo It’s fresh!!! Believe it or not, it’s supposed to be an extra añejo, but its flavours are young and natural. It all comes together exactly how it should be. All those flavours are tight. They’re well-balanced and well-integrated. It’s a young extra añejo in the sense that it is not heavy and that the wood is present with the freshness of the agave. The agave comes into play, and it doesn’t fade away. Everybody should drink. ”

    “I was surprised by this dude. Probably one of the best amongst the big brands out there. It does has the sensation of additives in it. The mouthfeel starts good but finishes weak. Lacks body but at least the flavours are drinkable. If that is the only tequila on the bar. I will drink this reposado.”

    “It had the aroma of mexican old hacienda kitchens. It was good but nothing mind blowing. The texture is okay and flavours too, but it won’t blow your mind, one thing for sure is a better tequila than many out there with big marketing budgets. Would I drink it again? It would all depend of what is sitting next to him.”

    “This is just Banana and more Banana. But FAKE banana. It is like drinking a banana smoothie. No agave, no tequila. It taste like a banana liqueur than tequila. In a blind tasting I will never picked that is tequila. Better use it for baking a dessert.”

    “It was better than my expectation. At least it has some agave flavours in it. And better than other celebrities tequilas and Big brands out there in the market . The sweetness at the end makes me think it has additives. They are better Tequilas at the same price or even cheaper out in the market.”

    “Lot 102. It took sometime to open. This is not the best lot of the ones I have tried but I love its finish. The aroma on this lot was very hot, lots of alcohol, anise, mint, agave crudo, very sharp herbs. It’s hard to get to cooked agave. It has a medicinal aroma, sort of like vapour. I usually get in fortaleza-los abuelos bread yeast but I didn’t in this one. Taste is mineral, anise and very herbal Finish long, little astringent. I like Fortaleza but this lot was not my favourite.”

    “This is a young fellow going happy, free and with rhythm at his pace. It is a great product. I do enjoy its flavours. The aromas and taste match. Cooked agave, wet soil, minerals. It coats the mouth nicely. The finish is good. It does have a metal finish right at the end that I don’t enjoy but still is not overly intense, which will ruin my experience; actually, some people might like that flavour.”

    “What an extra añejo!!! I have to say that the fact that it is 45abv helps keep the agave presence in the front lines. It’s so clean and well-made. It has everything: sweet agave, oak, vanilla, alcohol. Its finish is outstanding. I love this extra añejo, and I am not into them. It is sad to know that it is never to be made again in NOM 1579. ”
