Introducing Agavales <\/strong>tequila!\u00a0 Here\u2019s a completely worthy pair of blanco<\/strong> and reposado <\/strong>(no anejo) that will be just dandy in a cocktail, and certainly worthy as a slightly less-complex sipper during those long nights in front of the tube or computer!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

GENERAL TASTING NOTES:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Agavales <\/strong>is a surprisingly tasty and sweet ride through the agave fields of both highlands and lowlands.\u00a0 Though created specifically for use as a \u201cwell brand\u201d (read: cheap & anonymous) for bars and clubs, this juice surprised Lippy<\/strong> with its balanced bounty of flavors.\u00a0 The blanco<\/strong> was a bright and peppery agave-soaked tingle that had big notes of bight mint, menthol and spice in its liquid load.\u00a0 Though the main taste structure was quite thin in the mouth, the loudness of the spices made up for the lack of complexity.\u00a0 The reposado<\/strong> introduced planks of unsophisticated oak on the nose, but this gave way to some very nicely spiced vanilla and coconut flavors along with a thick slather of butter atop it all.\u00a0 Though the reposado<\/strong> will not have the complicated family of flavors to keep your interest over a long session of sipping, the price and the surprising balance of flavors will definitely have you coming back for more in both Margaritas and solo sipping sessions.<\/p>\n
