Señorita Mexicana Blanco
“Usually I’ll give one a half bottle chance before grading. But I have a hard time believing this tequila is Tahona crushed, brick ovens, wooden tanks etc. I’m leaning towards a diffuser. 29 bucks for 700ml. Some kind of weird funk note in there and just doesn’t have an agave forward flavor like a blanco should. Especially a Tahona blanco. No minerals. Also an artificial vanilla in there too. I’ll revisit but I doubt anything changes. Don’t even want to try it in a drink but I will so you don’t have to. ”

Ascenda Tequila Blanco
“This is a clean, balanced blanco, notes of cooked agave, licorice or anise notes, citrus with just a light touch of white pepper. Nice lingering finish. ”
More info →“Very interesting. Deep, rich flavor especially for a Reposado, but doesn’t come across as “bourbon-y” at all. Instead the wine casks and French oak take center stage, play very nicely together here (coming from one who generally doesn’t love French oak aged tequila). Warm spices come through on the nose and palette actually reminding me of a slightly less mature ArteNOM 1146. This is very well done. ”

Mijenta Tequila Blanco
“Conditions: Outdoors, 78°F, rested in a Kenzie glass for 1½ hours. Appearance: Crystal clear with silvery, pale clarity. Medium, evenly spaced legs suggesting possible sweetness and viscosity Aroma: A vibrant expression of agave. Fresh raw agave leads immediately, followed by bright citrus, freshly cut grass, and a distinctive cement-like minerality. As the spirit opens, notes of hay emerge alongside delicate herbal tones of marjoram and thyme, adding depth without overwhelming the agave. Palate: The arrival shifts from the nose’s raw agave into a more cooked agave profile. Orchard fruit develops through pear and apple, evolving into white peach and plum. Gentle baking spice provides structure while the spirit maintains an elegant, balanced mouthfeel. Finish: Moderate in length with a pleasantly oily texture that coats the palate. The fruit and agave linger gracefully before fading cleanly, inviting another sip. Final Thoughts: Mijenta Blanco is an honest, traditionally made tequila that lets the agave remain the focal point while rewarding patience with additional layers as it opens. Its balance of minerality, herbal complexity, orchard fruit, and texture makes it equally suited for quiet contemplation or sharing with friends who appreciate additive-free tequila. Bully Verdict: Not every tequila needs to be a heavyweight. Mijenta wins with balance, authenticity, and a quiet confidence that grows with every sip. ”

Terralta Tequila Blanco
“A nice agave start with a good peppery finish. While I rated it high, probably won’t buy again looking for something a little smoother. I enjoyed sipping this on ice.”

Lost Lore Westbound Reposado
“I wamted to tey something different so I picked up this rested offering from Lost Lore. The smell of stout beer is very prominent on the nose (this is a fresh crack), but it is not unpleasant. This isn't a blind review so I know to expect the beer smell, so that could have something to do with it. I do not like to drink beer, but I like to cook with it, which is essentially what they did here. And they did a fantastic job. I can't wait for this to open up a little, it will likely be even better. Great job to the team at NOM1414!”

Quintaliza Tequila Reposado
“I wanted to try something different so this one caught my eye. it had a strange, but not unpleasant, aroma that Incouldn't identify until I tasted it. it was bitterness from the coffee; again not unpleasant. Moderately sweet on the palate with a big hit of black coffee on the finish. This one will get people talking. This is pretty pricy at $80/bottle, but it's not one that you're going to go through quickly, so it's okay.”

Locuaz Tequila Blanco
“The bottle design differs from the one in the photo in the app. It's a simple 1 Liter bottle with a plain white label. However, it's still 100% agave and the same NOM 1548 from the Aha Family Tequilas. A great option on the local market for just $15 per liter.”
