Verdict

La Venenosa Tabernas Edición III is an honest continuation rather than a reinvention, the II and III drink closely enough that buying both is a completist move, not a discovery one. Either represents the brand's Tabernas work well. Consensus 3.5; we agree.

Edición III is Morales running the Tabernas case twice, same answer

Tasting notes

Nose: Tropical, green herb, mineral damp, coastal signature

Palate: Similar to Edición II with a touch more weight, the production choices are consistent, and the regional signature remains the reason to buy

Finish: Tropical-flinty, cool close – medium-long

The bottom line

Buy either II or III; not both
