For being a lower shelf pour, I've really enjoyed the other expressions of Dos Manos that I've had. And you all know how much I love a quality tequila under $30. I don't want to waste time with an intro...I want to jump right in. Price: $25/bottle Aroma: Cooked agave and loads of earthy notes. Maybe just a hint of light grass and citrus as well. Initial Taste: A very light sweetness with more powerful flavors of earth and pepper. Body: Medium to thin bodied. The pepper notes get a little stronger and the grassy element is there mid-palate as well. It's a traditional flavor with none of the sweetness additives included Finish: Big earth and pepper notes with just a hint of green veggie notes on the linger. It last a nice while as well. For those who like the earthy profile with lots of pepper, this is a bargain. This will not please those that prefer "sweeties." Me, I think that it's a great traditional flavor at a bargain price. I'm happy to have bought it and will enjoy it in a cocktail or when I'm looking for something a bit more on the dirty side. It's good to be back! ]]> Mon, 18 Aug 2014 00:23:22 +0000
