  • Intro:

    Distilled by Emilio Vieyra on copper in Michoacan, this uses a fairly unique agave: Agave Alto. This is from Lot 18 and was bottled in November of 2015. Lets dive in.

  • Nose:

    Ripe, fruity, faintly savory. Lemon, sweet and buttery, some pepper.

  • Taste:

    Light tobacco note, faint wood ash. Tons going on, great balance. Rich mouth feel, bit of sweetness. Proof feels really well placed, warm on the palate but just right.

  • Finish:

    Lovely long finish, sweet with mango, pepper, a hint of roasty agave.

  • Overall:

    Really complex, well done. Big fan of this expression, and its a really great companion to sit with for a while to take it all in.

  • Score:

    7
