Welcome to Agave Notes. These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Agave Notes website. By using this website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

1. About Agave Notes

Agave Notes publishes tequila reviews, ratings, articles, tasting observations, and related editorial content.

The website is intended for general information and entertainment. It is not intended to provide medical, legal, financial, nutritional, or professional advice.

2. Adults Only

Agave Notes is intended for people who are of legal drinking age in the location where they live.

The website does not encourage underage drinking, excessive alcohol consumption, drinking and driving, or other unsafe or unlawful behavior involving alcohol.

Please enjoy alcohol responsibly.

3. Reviews and Ratings Are Opinions

Tequila reviews, ratings, rankings, tasting notes, recommendations, and other evaluations published on Agave Notes reflect the author’s personal opinions and experiences.

Taste is subjective. Your experience with a product may differ based on factors including the bottle, batch, storage, serving method, glassware, food pairing, environment, and personal preference.

A favorable review or rating is not a guarantee that you will enjoy a product. A negative review does not mean that a product is defective or unsuitable for every consumer.

Unless otherwise disclosed, reviews are editorial content and are not statements made on behalf of a tequila producer, distributor, retailer, or other third party.

4. Product Information May Change

Agave Notes attempts to provide accurate and useful information, but product details may change without notice.

This may include:

  • Prices

  • Availability

  • Alcohol content

  • Ingredients or additives

  • Production methods

  • Distillery information

  • Packaging

  • Ownership

  • Formulations

  • Batch characteristics

Information may also differ between markets, retailers, production runs, or bottles.

Before making a purchase or consumption decision, you should confirm important product information through the producer, retailer, product label, or another current source.

5. Purchases and Availability

Agave Notes does not guarantee that any product will be available, appropriately priced, authentic, or legally available for purchase in your location.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, Agave Notes does not sell or ship alcoholic beverages.

Any purchase you make from a third-party retailer is a transaction between you and that retailer. Agave Notes is not responsible for order fulfillment, payment processing, shipping, returns, product condition, age verification, or customer service provided by third parties.

You are responsible for complying with the alcohol purchasing, possession, importation, and consumption laws that apply where you live.

6. Samples, Sponsorships, and Affiliate Links

Agave Notes may occasionally receive complimentary samples, products, event access, or other benefits from brands, producers, distributors, retailers, or public-relations representatives.

When a material relationship is relevant to a review or recommendation, Agave Notes will provide an appropriate disclosure with or near the applicable content.

Agave Notes may also use affiliate links. If you purchase something through an affiliate link, Agave Notes may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

Receiving a product, benefit, or commission does not guarantee favorable coverage or a particular rating.
