Dos Hombres Espadin
For the fans. Vida outperforms at two-thirds the price
Nose: Faint smoke, confected vanilla, alcoholic heat
Palate: Thin and sweet at 42% – built to hit a celebrity-brand price point without any production conviction
Finish: Slightly hot, short

Del Maguey VIDA Clásico
Underrated as a category workhorse. Overrated as a sipper
Nose: Campfire smoke up front, green banana, a little acetone on a warm pour
Palate: Bright, a touch thin, with sweet agave under the smoke. Less refined than the rest of the Del Maguey range
Finish: Peppery, clean – short
