Corzo Tequila Reposado

Wonderful! Colour of straw or "Champane". Long legs, betraying sweetness.
A hearty Agave start & nose. Delightful finish without the alcohol burn.

I had this neat in a tall shot glass with some home made Sangrita on the side.
This would be a deadly drink chilled...

Tasted in a rocks glass on February 23, 2008 showing lasting long thunder thigh legs on the glass.

Corzo Reposado

Color: golden
Aroma: heavy wood and slight smoke
Taste: black licorice with a light body, a finish with a smooth burn.

A nice light reposado neat. A good reposado to sip or mix in a cocktail. The bottle is very sleek with it's unique waterfall faucet pour and metal/cork stopper.

Corzo Reposado NOM 1487 Tasted 11/18/2007: Color reminiscent of Champagne. Legs strong and oily holding up to time with slow but pervasive branching on the low end. Smells of honey then oak on the rise from mid-glass to top rim. Robust agave start, peppery swallow and sweet finish.

Corzo Reposado NOM 1487 Tasted 12/29/06. With a pale yellowish golden color, Corzo Reposado has intense aromas of floral, earth, and spice. Moderate aromas consist of fruit and smoke. The tequila has no bitterness to it and a semi sweet aftertaste. Initial flavors are intense agave, earth, and floral. There are also moderate spicy and fruity flavors. A slight tingly alcohol intensity and a medium duration of flavor bring this tequila experience to an end. This tequila received the rating of A-/B+.

I found this reposado from Corzo to be quite distinct and very good. Every aspect of this tequila is similar to the Corzo Anejo, but is more subdued and not as complex nor rich, which is completely expected given that it's not aged as long. Unlike the anejo, the bottle does not come in a fancy package and is rather sold as a loose bottle. It's damn pretty to look at, and equally as good to sip if you're a reposado fan! I recommend it wholeheartedly!
