Verdict
A genuine 25-25-25-25 field blend is rare because it means harvesting, cooking, and fermenting four agaves together rather than blending bottled versions. Rey Campero did the harder work, and at 48.4% all four signatures arrive in rough equilibrium. Not a benchmark bottle, but a committed one. Del Maguey's Vida doesn't do this; this is what the premium tier is supposed to deliver.

Tasting notes
Nose: Orchid, green pepper, cooked agave, wildflower, wet stone
Palate: No single agave dominant, the field-blend math is visible in how the sip unfolds. Rómulo Sánchez Parada's discipline is everywhere; distributed and layered at 48.4%
Finish: Long, floral, mineral
The bottom line
Buy it for the method, drink it for the balance
