Comments: This  offering from El Catrin went down quiet well during our testing. In fact the entire bottle lasted about 1 hour by small but dedicated test team. Even though the bottle only contained 500 ml, instead of the marked 750 ml. We got shorted and we unsealed the bottle. The Aztec headdress was the selling point of this offer, but the tequila did not disappoint us. There was a bit of tannin, but it did not distract the testers. There was a definite sweetness in the after taste. No harsh bite.

Tip of the month- Always check the contents, if sold in an opaque container. Weigh it.
