Score: 3.5/5 agaves

Lagrimas de Dolores Sierreño bottle

Verdict

Lagrimas de Dolores Sierreño is a solid regional expansion piece – not as deep as the Masparillo or Lamparillo, but a clean read on a less-bottled variant. Worth owning if you're building a Durango catalog. Consensus 3.6; we agree.

Sierreño is cenizo's cooler, higher cousin

Tasting notes

Nose: Green herb, cedar, wet stone

Palate: Mineral and cool at 47%. Sierreño runs leaner than cenizo; Ávila's production is consistent with her other releases, and the mountain reads cleanly without amplification

Finish: Medium-long, mineral-cedar, slow close

The bottom line

Buy for variant specificity; Masparillo for depth
