Review #24: i agree with tyler on his “juicy” note, juicy and rich citrus fruits, sweet and slightly sour lemon, orange, and lime. Sweet earthiness, light florals, sweet roasted honey nuts, some smoke and an herbal backbone.
I really liked this one and it’s definitely one of the better sotols i have had. Decent complexity here and has that oomph for me.

641 reviewsA “juicy” Sotol. Slight alcohol kick. Clean spearmint, not a ton of organic grass or interesting wild notes. Overall clean profile and kind of meh. Well made but not memorable. Probably good in cocktails. Sipped at Terlingua in Portland, ME.. didn’t catch the batch info.
