- Excerpt: Tamarind, butterscotch, smoky bacon, grilled pineapple and sea salt. Truly a bold spirit. Lush, rich, fatty, sweet, savory and contemplative. All while accomplishing the rare feat of being both filling and refreshing!

- Publication: Drink Hacker
- Excerpt: Gently grainy on the palate, those bready notes quickly give way to more citrus, a gentle layer of baking spice, and an enveloping, sesame-sweet finish, with only the slightest hint of smoke along the way. Chichicapa is tough to put down, and stands as one of the top bottlings of the Del Maguey line, approachable by novices yet fully enjoyable by pros.
