About this deal

Flavour: The word “fresh” comes to mind for the initial taste. A bit sharper (wrong word, but somehow it felt localized to a few areas, so sharp as in ‘concentrated and intense’, but not as in ‘burning’) alcohol feel in the mouth when holding it on the tongue than I though I got with the Don Julio. I liked it. More volume needed in next sip to taste more, I think. The finish is warm and peppery with a slight burn, but nothing severe, and a salty aftertaste. My opinion: Here, I’m not just sharing opinions; I’m weaving tales from the rich tapestry of my experiences over these three decades. Flavor: The flavor is a definite surprise. I was thinking it was going to be a bit salty but ended up being much more peppery. I also get a little hint of oak Olmeca Altos Reposado and Añejo are aged in 200-litre bourbon barrels for minimum of 12 months. Using smaller barrels creates a more complex profile, perfectly balanced, keeping its unique tequila taste.

Olmeca Altos Reposado is our most awarded tequila, achieving several medal at the most distinguished spirit competitions around the world since its creation; including The Tequila Masters, The San Francisco World Spirits competition, Critics Challenge, Concours Mondial Bruxelles, and more. In this case, the tequila Reposado will improve both your Blue Margaritas and your Skinny Margarita. You can also prepare a Margarita Recipe with this tequila. Olmeca Altos Plata is the most traditional expression of Altos. Recognized for its natural smoothness when sipped, but also for being the Margarita champion, a top choice tequila for margaritas by bartenders. The result of this labor comes in two final expressions: plata and reposado. Both have an herbal nose. Plata, which is unaged, is aromatic and sweet with citric and cooked Agave notes, well balanced with peppery heat and has a long lasting, fruity finish. However, it’s important to note that Reposado Tequilas can impart a slightly cloudy appearance to Margaritas, which may be off-putting to some.

Olmeca Altos Reposado is our most awarded tequila, acheiving several medal at the most distinguished spirit competitions around the world since its creation. On the palate, it offers a pleasant sweetness of caramel, accompanied by hints of oak char, almond, cinnamon, and a touch of mint.

Third time - I must be cued up to taste anise after noticing it on my third try of DJ, but honestly, it felt pronounced and strong - much stronger than what I got in the DJ. How much of this is just in my head? The palate displays intense herbal flavors that transition into spiciness and sweetness from the agave.When tasted, it presents crisp apple and lime flavors that transition into a bold and sweet blue agave taste, with a finish characterized by spices and a touch of oak. Altos Tequila is made using a traditional method of crushing the agave plants with a two-ton tahona stone, which helps preserve the agave’s natural sweetness better than the roller mill. Olmeca Reposado is fruity, sweet and slightly woody. Aged in ex bourbon casks for at least 5 months, its sweet aroma with a touch of smoke is sure to make your night golden. Third time - something markedly savoury hit me this time. Not sure what, but had a mental flash of meat on a grill, so something more umami-ish? No idea, but probably just making this up anyway!

After second try of Don Julio, still think I can detect the aromas above, but I have a suspicion that I’d get something different on a different day. Seems fainter than the DJ. It begins with 100% blue Weber agave harvested 7,000 feet above sea level in the volcanic-rich soils of the Jalisco Highlands. Olmeca Reposado, a Tequila is fruity, sweet, and slightly woody. Perfect for the shot of energy your night is waiting for!
