Patrón El Alto Reposado Tequila

78 SCORE

“This was a 50ml sample bottle Very easy drink, no burn at all. Not much on the nose, decent flavour, super short easy finish. Quite expensive though at $20 for 50ml, 3 for value.”

Alida Tequila Blanco Rose

66 SCORE

“This was my second rosé style tequila. Aroma: Fruit from the wine influence dominates, some subtle oak and alcohol (19) Palette: Thin mouthfeel, fruit from wine influence carries, some oak, heat that resonates in the nasal passage (20) Finish: Medium length with some heat left on the back of the tongue, fruity (19) This one was a bit disappointing as I like the regular blanco and the repo is decent.”

Alida Tequila Reposado

71 SCORE

“My first ever Reposado experience a few years back. Easy on the nose, but sweet; vanilla and some wood detectable, some alcohol. Taste is vanilla, sweetness, bit of alcohol. It’s an ok mouth feel. Finish has a touch of a burn, but not bad at all.”

El Tesoro Tequila Reposado

“Beautiful in the glass. El Tesoro distills to proof, which I really love. Nose: Agave, light vanilla, the blanco is not completely lost Palette: Great mouthfeel, viscous, agave, faint vanilla, a subtle whiskey note Finish: This finishes easy and medium length”

El Tesoro Tequila Añejo

91 SCORE

“Batch A-015 Nice legs in the glass, coats well, excellent mouth feel Aroma: Nice funk, agave, slight vanilla, oak, whiskey notes Palate: True to the aroma, agave still there, that funk that I like, whiskey,not much heat at all, oak is barely detectable, I was worried that an añejo would be stronger on the wood flavour Finish: Short, some heat on first sip but subsides afterwards. Overall this is another excellent expression from El Tesoro. Easy to drink, well made. My top Añejo so far.”
