The agave picked for Calle 23 is grown in the Highlands (Los Altos) of Jalisco, between the town of Tepatitlan and Arandas. It's double-distilled in stainless steel pot stills and completely unaged. Note: the master distiller, Sophie Decobecq, one of the few women distillers in Mexico, is a former bio-chemist who previously worked in the South African spirits industry.

Price estimated. Purchased from Alchemy. Nose: Mild agave. Grassy. Palate: Short and subtle. Lime zest. Cream Finish: Medium. Peppery. Verdict: Simple, straight forward. Makes good cocktails. Not horribly expensive, but I think I may prefer the Espolon Blanco for the flavor & it absolutely kills it on value, as it is sometimes half the price.
Smooth cream, little spice, fruit, a warm fullness when it comes to the texture, a little bit of liquorice.
