Alto Canto Blanco High Proof
Jalisco (Southeast)
“This has a unique and interesting aroma and flavor profile, and is a great example of what can be achieved with slow-and-low production techniques. Cooked agave, olive, brine, minerals, butter, and a hint of lactic - all of these are favorites of mine. I think it’s w...”
Zumbador Tequila Blanco
Jalisco (Los Altos Southern)
“I think most of us can appreciate a good value tequila. I have a couple, Suerte and Puro Potro. These are tequilas that punch above their weight class. Zumbador fits that bill too Nice nose of agave and floral. Minty. On the palate it is also a sweet agave bomb wi...”
Amatiteña Tequila Añejo
Jalisco (Los Valles)
“Absolutely AMAZING nose in this, makes you want to dive in head first. Very gentle flavours with some very present agave and a nice touch of sweet. My favorite part is easily the finish, it’s short and off dry that makes me immediately reach for my next sip.”
Don Fulano Blanco Fuerte (100 proof)
Jalisco (Los Valles)
“Nice nose! Agave, brine, green olive, mint and vegetal notes. Bright and clear in the glass with nice adhesion. Creamy mouthfeel and an agave bomb of flavor! Natural sweetness is followed by a peppery-spice that settles into a dry but medium-long and warm finish....”
Mijenta Blanco Maestra Selection No. 3
Jalisco (Los Altos Southern)
“sample sent from the brand Maestra Selection No. 3 begins with fully mature Blue Weber agaves grown from seed in Jamay, Jalisco by the Lago de Chapala shoreline. These agaves are slowly cooked in an oven crafted using volcanic stone from Popocatépetl, an active vo...”
Volans Still Strength Blanco
Jalisco (Los Altos Southern)
“At the bar. Hard to get a full grasp on the nose but enjoying for sure. Palate is excellent. Sweet agave up front. Tart citrus mid. Pepper and cinnamon on the back. Finish is amazing. Lasts long and flavors linger. Glad this is so good. NOM 1579 has disappointed me l...”
ArteNOM Seleccion de 1414 Reposado
Jalisco (Los Altos Southern)
“Lote 2573, 232822, 04/29/25 Lots of yeast on the nose and palette here for me. Reminiscent in ways of the 1579 blanco which in its own way is kinda relevatory for me in a way that I didn’t think it’d be possible that the profile would carry from one distillery to t...”
Socorro Tequila Añejo
Jalisco (Los Altos Southern)
“Socorro Añejo This is an Agavos Gold winner. The unique component of this spirit is that it’s aged in virgin American white oak barrels for 14 months. No other spirit was aged in their barrels. You’re getting the agave and the barrel influence without an added comp...”
Tequila Providencia Reposado
Jalisco (Los Altos Southern)
“Aroma: vanilla, honey, peach, cooked agave, flowers, herbal Taste: strong herbal, agave, white pepper, vanilla; not too much barrel influence The aroma is nice, if a bit sweet. But overall it has some interesting layers to it. The flavor starts more herbal than I p...”
Legacy 71 "De Alambique" Blanco
Jalisco (Ciénega)
“No. Bottle: 2316 • Visual: Bright, Clear with med, clear edge. Great viscosity. • Aroma: Big citrus, white flowers, mineral, minty/funky thing going on, hot pepper. • Mouthfeel: Creamy with generous alcohol. Drying on the tongue. • Flavor: Like the aroma - big citru...”
Loco Tequila Blanco
Jalisco (Los Valles)
“This is a quality blanco tequila made with a blend of 9 blancos. It’s very clean and polished. It’s very traditional. It’s earthy and mineral with some bright citrus notes along with the clean crisp agave. They use estate agaves and shave them tight. This is a polis...”
Cascahuín Swell de Spirits X Los Convidados
Jalisco (Los Valles)
“The nose is amazing. Agave with a brown sugar, citrus orange, Wonderful palate with sweet agave, herbal, light pine, great finish. Which I had more of these. ”

Gran Dovejo Añejo
90 SCORE“Nom 1414. Really like this anejo. Drinks almost like an XA. Sweet profile with notes of butterscotch, vanilla and some cinnamon. But just enough agave flavor to remind you what it is. They’ve changed distilleries and this expression from nom 1414 is getting harder and harder to find. Luckily I found 5 at a local liquor store and bought them all. ”

Escalón Selección Tahona Blanco
93 SCORE
“I was sent a sample of this tequila by the brand. I was totally blown away by the profile. This checks every box off. I can't wait until I can get a bottle. An incredible Blanco. Nose: cooked agave, butter, minerality, grapefruit Taste: cooked agave, butter, citrus Tahona crushed, fermented in Wooden Vats with wild Yeast. Delicious! ”

Arette Artesenal Reposado Suave
84 SCORE“Nose: Cooked agave and a bright burst of citrus peel hit you first. Right behind that, you get a clean, earthy mineral scent mixed with fresh mint, a touch of vanilla, and a hint of white flowers. Palate: The sweet cooked agave flavor is upfront, quickly layering with toasted oak, butterscotch, cinnamon, and a subtle fruitiness like ripe apples. Finish: Long, warm, and exceptionally smooth. The sweetness fades out cleanly, leaving behind a nice trailing flavor of dry, toasty wood, soft baking spices, and a gentle kick of black pepper. Overall: While the standard budget-friendly Arette line is punchy and built to cut through cocktails, the Artesanal Suave series is engineered purely for slow sipping. The Orendain brothers let this liquid rest in used bourbon barrels for 11 months—cutting it close to añejo territory—which rounds off every sharp edge. Open-air fermentation in their historic cement vats gives it a distinct Tequila Valley character that keeps the earthy agave spirit front and center without letting the wood take over.”

Fortaleza Blanco
90 SCORE
“Truly enjoy this tequila although it can be hard to get sometimes. ”
More info → -
“This is a special release Dobel 50 Extra Anejo aged in American Oak & finished in Silver Oak Wine cabernet sauvignon barrels. The aromas and taste is nice and sweet, but has a very strong presence of oak and sweetness (possible Additives and extracts) that brings out citrus fruits and strong spices. You have very little agave presence in this. This isnt bad but for the price ($600+) so many great options for an agave foward high end Extra Anejo from trusted brands. ”

Escalón Selección Tahona Blanco
96 SCORE
“This was excellent! This is not just a beautiful bottle, the tequila is amazing! Escalon opens with rich, sweet cooked agave, citrus, and pepper on the nose, then on the palate carries sweet cooked agave, citrus, butter, and minerality through to a warm black pepper finish that lingers. It’s a complex, warm sip. Very delicious and I am excited for this new brand. ”

El Jimador Blanco Tequila
66 SCORE“This blanco is not my favorite. On the nose, I picked up noticeable alcohol, and something like a hand cleaner, with very little agave. On the palate, it was slightly sweet but felt flat and lacked complexity. This one is not for me. (Maybe a mixer).”

“As for Rosa this is one of my favorite ones as a Anejo and a high proof!”

De Nada Tequila Reposado
85 SCORE“Quite good. Poured a little cloudy from the aluminum bottle but tasted fine. Lots of agave, pepper and citrus paired nicely with some warm spice. Never becomes oaky which I appreciate. Another solid outing for 1414, and while I find most of their brands follow a pretty similar flavor profile, there’s some nuance here that I definitely prefer compared some of their more popular fan favorites. Bonus points for being a few dollars cheaper than some comparable 1414s. Would happily drink again. ”

“Awesome anejo! Subtle fruity smell, great on the finish, wood/oak shines through. Bought it for $99 as a local liquor store was, for whatever reason, cutting price way back. Go getcha some!”
