Convite jabalí at 46%. Underpowered for the agave

Verdict
A competent but underwhelming jabalí. Convite's jabalí at 46% is underpowered for the agave – jabalí's characteristic herbal density and cocoa undertone need 48%+ to fully express, and the undersold proof caps what the composition can do. The producer's tobalá elsewhere in the range is markedly stronger. Rey Campero Jabalí at roughly the same price outperforms meaningfully.
Jabalí at 46% isn't quite the agave at its best
Tasting notes
Nose: Hot stone, green pepper, muted herbal
Palate: Medium-bodied, jabalí asks for more
Finish: Drying
The bottom line
Rey Campero Jabalí at a similar price outperforms
