Rating: 12/23 N: This has a richer, somewhat oilier nose than Lunazul Reposado does. I get floral and vanilla notes, but also just substantial agave vegetal scent with a bit of herbal character. There isn't much going on here, but it toes the line between light and rich fairly well. Just smelling this, I can imagine the agave being stewed. That isn't true for Lunazul Reposado. P: I recall this having tons of vanilla, but although it does still have quite a bit of vanilla, it has way more stewed agave than I remembered. It's on the light side, but it's quite natural and has a nice bit of oiliness. I get a mix of vegetal, light savory, faintly herbal, and kind of briny flavors. There's nothing special going on here, but it is pretty solid. There's also quite a bit of cardboard Definitely a good choice for mixing, but it's also sippable. It really just isn't that interesting though. F: The cardboard remains the most, along with a vague creek water sweetness. There are suggestions of the agave flavors and vanilla, but nothing too strong here. This is kind of a disappointing finish. Lunazul Reposado is more complex, but also more immature and also a bit harsher. Both of these are fine enough and considering the price I think I'd go for the Lunazul, but between the two, I do find the Cabo Wabo to be a bit more enjoyable. It may be less complex, but I get a bit more of that natural agave flavor in it. I'm thinking 12 or 13 for this one. I compared it with Lunazul Reposado and El Mayor Añejo and determined that this was the middle one. Most likely, their ratings are 11, 12, and 13. I can imagine them being 11, 13, and 13, or even 12, 13, and 13, but I really think that 12 is what this probably deserves. For a simple cross-category comparison, I think I'd rather have Jim Beam Black than this, but I'd rather have El Mayor Añejo than Jim Beam Black. Jim Beam Black is a 13, but sometimes maybe a 12, so this is clearly a 12, unfortunately.
