Tequila Review: Dos Manos Reposado

I’ve been seeing this one around quite a bit lately, claiming that valuable shelf space at the big grocery stores. Of course, I can think of a truckload of other brands I’d like to have easy access to rather than this one. The truth is there is some good spicy cinnamon aftertaste here, a touch of pineapple, but the initial flavor is a harsh alcohol burn that is too overwhelming. The bottle’s nothing special either, one of those squat cubes. At least give me something nice to look at while I’m cringing at that rough first punch. All that said, there are some decent flavors hiding in there and, sadly, if you’re at the supermarket and nothing’s on sale, this may actually be your best bet for the price.
