Both official sources describe unaged, 40% ABV, 100% Blue Weber expressions. Casa México supplies a $34.99 producer-store observation and brick-oven disclosure; Don Julio describes double pot-still distillation and a lemon/lime/grapefruit nose. There is no matched Don Julio price or independent tasting panel, so we cannot establish a cross-brand value or taste winner.
The producer's listed $34.99 price is the lowest of the three Casa México expressions in this snapshot. Its unaged classification and citrus-led producer description make it a useful starting point for comparing the range—not evidence of superior taste or value against the entire market.
Don Julio describes a citrus-led, unaged expression and double pot-still distillation. No matched retail price has been observed for this release, so a comparative value winner cannot be established. Producer notes are not independently measured sensory scores.
We do not assign a value winner without matched price observations and an explicit comparable evaluation. Price alone is not a quality score.
No. Producer descriptors are useful context but do not establish numerical sensory intensity. We deliberately omit unsupported radar scores.
Producer specifications and tasting descriptions are attributed claims. No independent tasting scores are published in this release.
