I like that you are waiting on reviewing bottles. I have so many unopened. It’s nice to see a new review of a bottle that didn’t just come out last week.
I’m glad you guys call out the marketing. Tequila is great at it! Additive-free brands included. Whether they pay their respects to their older Mezcal origins or not is another story. P.S. Love the new studio!!!!
58$ by me! I have a gem of a liquor store, sometimes he will put the regular blanco on sale for 30. El Gran Legado for 35. Yeyo for 42 etc. Haven't tried this yet but its sounds great/better than the TMM ranking.
Very tasty High Proof and I am currently enjoying mine. Definitely better than the regular Blanco. But...should be a regular release and brought down to $55-60, same price point as El Tequileno Still Strength (50%).
Phenominal isn't a word I'd use, but way better than the 40 ABV version. For those around long enough to remember the original release of Lalo, it was excellent. Then they moved to a new distillery location, and the uniqueness disappeared. IMO, the current version is bland and boring. I found the high proof good, but it released in my area at $79, and totally NOT worth that price. This is a $55-60 bottle all day long, and we need to stop rolling over for the high prices. There are so many new high proof releases that this gets lost. Good, but not a unique high proof blanco.
You know what’s crazy? I’m not a big tequila fan… between Lalo and Osadia I don’t taste or smell anything… it’s like drinking water!!! I’ve gone through lots of bottles and literally nothing…. Maybe I’m broken?

Too cold here in NW Indiana; I'm firmly entrenched in whisk(e)y mode right now.
Great review. On the Tequila reddit thread Lalo Gonzales said they don't have imminent plans on doing anything other than blancos.
Paid 64 for mine with Lalos signature on it.
I’m glad you guys reviewed it! I thought it was sweet as well!

High proof/still strength blanco drink through??
Lalo high proof hits hard! Usually drink something lower proof before this blows my palate out.
Love the new set!

Nice review! Bought the bottle but haven’t cracked it yet!
The regular Lalo has become my favorite go to blanco tequila. I’m interested to see how they compare and if it’s worth double the price.

Are you guys doing a review of Arette Artisinal blanco and repo
We did include them in our Arette Drinkthrough
What does Dr.Ajus think??
Also random note, have you boys tried Suerte? Might be the most underrated brand on the market and is CHEAP!!!
Knew that high proof Lalo would be released
Grab the Lalo blanco and compare.

We're all broken, to some degree. That's why we drink.😊
Cool..first
