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...”
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...”
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...”
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.”
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. ”
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...”
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...”
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...”
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...”
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....”

Hornitos Plata Tequila
36 SCORE“Tried it on an hotel in Punta Mita. Just for margaritas, impossible to drink in a shot. ”

Mosaino Blanco
97 SCORE
“This is honestly the best tequila i’ve ever tasted! Aroma: Cooked agave, black pepper, fresh herbs, minerality and strong earthy notes. Flavor: Cooked agave leads the way, followed by pepper, minerals and subtle herbal notes. Clean and well balanced, with a natural agave sweetness. Finish: Long, warm and peppery, with cooked agave lingering through the finish. The bottle is very elegant, minimalist and clean. It is a bottle that absolutely must be on my bar. ”

Espolon Añejo
82 SCORE“This añejo is a little on the sweet side for me. Aromas: Cooked agave, caramel, oak, and alcohol. Flavors: Agave, oak, butterscotch, and barrel spice. Finish: A bit sweet, with the barrel sweetness lingering. This is an añejo with good agave and oak character, though the sweeter caramel and butterscotch notes are more than I prefer. I'll most likely use this añejo in cocktails that call for añejo tequila, where its barrel sweetness and spice should work nicely with the other.”

“You can smell that this was aged in Japanese whiskey, barrels, but I still get nice cooked agave and a little bit of spice on the nose. The test is kind of medium bodied you get really yummy cooked agave and then the peat from the barrels comes through. ”

Siembra Valles Ancestral Blanco

Ensueño High Proof Blanco
90 SCORE“Excellent high proof! Aromas of white pepper, citrus, and fresh rainwater. Flavors of citrus, jalapeño, minerals, cut grass, and honey. Nice finish. ”

“Nose-palate-finish super good, balanced, complex with an EVOLVING elegance. Palate is full bodied with many layers; sweet agave, oak and honey with minimal heat. Finish is long and lingering….sweet agave, fruit, with a kiss of tangerine flavored honey. A dangerous sipper for sure! Was surprised how much better the tasting experience was over the Ruby wine and Apple brandy cask expressions. One of my favorite anejo’s. ”

Gran Dovejo Añejo
90 SCORE“Nom 1414. Really like this anejo. It punches above its weight class; 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. ”
