Update: I don't know why I ever wires such a complimentary first paragraph. A citrus and toffee delight that expands upon most Blanco tequilas. There is menthol for sure and there are relatively few flavors, but this tequila makes an impact and I want to drink more. It's sweet and tastes briefly like tang and grape soda, but it's fun and tasty. I like this reposado, even though it is not sound in the traditional dimensions. There isn't a ton of agave flavor here and there isn't a bunch of wood either. Other anejos taste more like they came from plants grown in the ground, but this reposado is fun. Sure, the meaty smoke mixed with vegetal notes is missing, but it's fun! Compared to Don Julio 1952, this is mild and full of mineral flavor. On the other hand though, it is sweet and fun. It may not be totally refines, but this is a worthwhile tequila. There's a hint of anise that gives it richness, but it doesn't interfere sith the overall flavor. This is a balanced drink. The flavors at the front are mild toffee and citrus mixed with alcohol. The alcohol is fairly overwhelming, though it eventually tastes like minerals. The finish has a nice sweet flavor, but the alcohol and minerals overwhelm the mild good flavors. There isn't much depth here. I initially liked this better than the Blanco, but now I prefer the Blanco. The nose has the lightness, but also the fruity sweetness and spice. The palate has a fun tingling spice to it with some sweet caramel that is light by not sickly. Some tropical fruit notes like mango and papaya come through. It's sweet and smooth, but also light and not all that complex. There's a tad of barrel and some vanilla. This would go great in a margarita. It's not the best thing out there, but it's smooth with a lot of tequila flavors and a nice fruity sweetness. It's good. The Blanco is a bit edgier with more vanilla sweetness. The Blanco is good too, but this is more rich and full. It's an improvement, though not a terrific sipper. It beats Hornitos Reposado in terms of subtlety, though in terms of punch it is lacking and it's too light. It tastes a little bit better than Hornitos Reposado, but it's still in the low end. Actually, I'm going back and forth on them. This has some more interesting rolling complexity throughout, but it lacks the richness with some water added. Neither is any Herradura Reposado though.
