“La Tuna de Arriba”
The Fuenteseca 2020 Huerta Singular Blanco Tequila from “La Tuna de Arriba” is a unique expression of tequila and terroir. Complex smells of earth, honey, spice, petrichor, and roasted agave take turns rushing to your nose to combine into an overwhelming scent that shouts with exquisite agave tequila aromas. Each whiff transforms into flavor on the palate and every sip reveals different pleasures reflecting what is promised by the nose. The first sip shows a tiny bite of sharp alcohol before quickly shifting to a stunning textural oiliness that slides down the throat like silk. Roasted agave flavor fills the mouth and leaves a luscious, velvety aftertaste.
From start to finish this is a magical spirit that thrills all the senses and guarantees that every encounter will reveal different pleasures. It is one of the greatest tequilas I have ever tasted, and I look forward to every evening I allow myself to finish by sipping and savoring a glass of 2020 Fuenteseca Blanco.
