CHILLED AWARDS
Avion Reposado Tequila
Final Score: 94 (Double Gold)
Visual Clarity & Appearance | 9.4
Off-clear to a very light straw color; a little light for a reposado.
Aromatics (Nose) | 9.6
Gorgeous, crisp, and pleasantly fruity; the alcohol is present but not overly harsh.
Initial Palate (Entry) | 9.6
Balanced, crisp, and smooth; elegant with a hint of sweetness and pleasant heat.
Mid-Palate & Texture (Mouthfeel) | 9.7
Smooth, balanced, and stays flavorful in the mouth.
Flavor Complexity & Depth | 9.9
A solid 10/10 representation of a reposado; the layers of fruit and agave show remarkable depth.
Alcohol Integration (Balance) | 9.7
Well-balanced; all aromas and flavors play beautifully together without one overpowering the rest.
The Finish (Aftertaste) | 10.0
Very good, long, and complex; finishes with crisp polish and finesse.
Varietal / Style Accuracy | 8.7
Great price for a great tequila; significantly over-delivers for its price point.
Mixability Potential / Sipper | 9.9
Would absolutely enhance complex cocktails, but begs to be enjoyed on its own.
Overall Impression, Value & Packaging | 7.9
The bottle looks great but feels a bit basic; it might lose itself on a shelf given the exceptionally high quality of the spirit inside.
