It all starts with the fold out cardboard box. It shows that the craftsmen thought of the little things. Aroma: Sweet agave and vanilla with a hint of fruit and spice. Initial Taste: A nice light sweetness and spice and pepper notes. Body: Thin mouth feel. The sweetness fades into a spicy and smokey agave flavor. Very surprising based on the nose and initial taste. Finish: The smokey flavor continues and then at the very end you get a nice spicy vanilla linger. A nice end to an interesting tequila journey. I have a feeling that if I tasted this 5 times that it might be a bit different every single time depending on food, number of previous drinks and even mood. A solid tequila that is worth having in your collection...even if the box/bottle weren't as fun. ]]> Wed, 21 Mar 2012 03:40:28 -0400 330-1853 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/chamucos-tequila-reposado-especial.html Bought Tequila Chamucos in Jersey City, NJ. It was one of the few opportunities we found to purchase this Tequila. We use cabalitos that were included with a purchase of Hijos de Villa Reposado. Really enjoy the bottle and the glass thickness. The box is a hoot., glad to have it. Sweet, fruity with a strong sense of the oak barrel aging. A very pleasant mild alcohol burn. For my palate, very different from other reposados. I would recommend this tequila and would definitely purchase it again. ]]> Wed, 23 Feb 2011 02:24:17 -0500 330-1714 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/chamucos-tequila-reposado-especial.html Chamucos Reposado has a light amber color and comes in a hand blown glass bottle. First taste is mild citrus to very mild spice. (No caramel taste at all.) The finish is a mild smoke with very little alcohol taste and very smooth and drinkable. For me, the clean smoke finish with very little alcohol aftertaste is really what makes Chamucos such an enjoyable Reposado. The price is around $38 to $45 and well worth the money for what you get. It's not easy to find but worth the effort. ]]> Fri, 29 Oct 2010 05:39:49 -0400 330-213 http://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/reposados/chamucos-tequila-reposado-especial.html Chamucos Reposado NOM 1433 Tasted 4/18/07. The tequila is a pale yellow golden color and has intense fruit and floral aromas. Once you get past the intensity of the nose, you can smell moderate notes of earth, spice, and smoke. On the tip of the tongue the tequila is mellow and soft, while feeling thin in the mouth. While the tequila is sweet, it is actually has low bitterness. Now onto flavor. The flavor has intense floral and fruity attributes which are followed by moderate agave and earth and mild spice and smoke. The tequilas finish is a medium duration of flavor followed by a numbing alcohol feeling. Overall, I rated this tequila at the B level. ]]> Tue, 29 May 2007 04:16:29 -0400
