UPROXX: "CIERTO TEQUILA LIVES UP TO ITS HYPE"
By Dane Rivera
CIERTO TEQUILA PRIVATE COLLECTION REPOSADO
Cierto has had a strong presence at the International Spirits Competition NYC, Craft Distillers Spirits Competition, San Francisco World Spirits Competition and Sip Awards. It’s a competition darling and one taste is all it takes to see why.
The tequila is produced at NOM 1146, Tequileña, and is aged for 11 months in French Limousin oak barrels.
TASTING NOTES
Nose: A nice balance of caramel and agave. I’m getting a sense of cinnamon. Overall there is a soft inviting quality to this one.
Palate: Rich roasted agave, a touch of vanilla, some chili and black pepper, and bright and juicy mango.
Finish: Spicy cinnamon and bitter coffee with a light oakiness.
Bottom Line: A premium tequila that lives up to its hype and price tag.
