    The cork is a mini Tahona stone. It’s designed after the stone they use to crush their agave. Best cork in the game.

    Another great video! El Tesoro validates Dillon’s anti repo/Anejo stance completely. But Siete Leguas and El Tequileno have a lot to offer in those expressions. It’s hard to take one stance for all brands.

    Solid brand throughout. The only ones I don't have are the Paradiso and Knob Creek Mundial edition. My biggest gripe I have with El Tesoro isn't really a gripe....but the Extra Anejo is probably the best edition, even over the 85th Anniversary, which I find somewhat flat. Completely agree about the repo not standing out when the blanco seems like a Tequila standard.

  • @LitoCortes
    @LitoCortes 7 місяців тому

    I'm a peat head and I'm with Dillon on the Laphroaig cask Tesoro. I do not see this one as a gateway for peat heads to go into Tequila. Mezcal does that quite well. I wasn't able to get any peat on the nose or palate when I cracked it. I guess it's time to revisit this bottle.

  • @dave1986R
    @dave1986R 7 місяців тому

    When I learned about the El Tesoro aged in used Laphroaig barrels I was very doubtful about that. For one thing I don’t like Scotch that much, and Laphroaig is very strong and peaty.
    However the Knob Creek edition is aged in used Rye barrels instead of Bourbon, which is very unique. Since Rye is more peppery and spicy than Bourbon I’m going to say it will make for a much more peppery and less sweet añejo Tequila.

    @CuriosityPublic , as I know you are aware, the old Paradiso will not resemble the current lineup due to many factors: ie agave age, brix levels, yeast type, barrels, water, cooking, distillation, etc..... To bad you didn't have bottles (ETWL or ETOO) from the same era as the old Paradiso. Perhaps there would of been more of an agave connection⁉️🤷‍♂️

    Picked up the extra anejo tonight.. yeah, it's so agave forward for an extra anejo. I tired it next to 3 Amigos (not a great brand but additive free and cheap) and the 3 Amigos was SO much less agave forward. Hell, also picked up a G4 Blanco and poured that next to the El Tesoro extra anejo and the El Tesoro has more strong blanco agave flavor than G4 Blanco. I'm new to Tequila but G4 Blanco is very mid. Similar to your blind results I find it to be no where near as good as Tequila Ocho. I might even prefer Tres Agavez blanco over G4. I even like the presentation of Tres Agavez better than G4. G4 has no style.
