Verdict

Lalocura's tobasiche is the producer's quietest bottle – nothing showy, nothing decorative. You either find it meditative or boring depending on how you drink. We find it meditative.

Tobasiche is a plainer agave. Lalocura makes the case

Tasting notes

Nose: Green pepper, then damp earth, pine, faint smoke

Palate: Lean, herbal, with a cooling quality the lower-priced tobasiches lack. 49% reads as structure, not heat

Finish: Dry, cooling. Long

The bottom line

A quiet Lalocura. A thinker
