Bottle: Bottle No. 0173 of 9,690 Bottles, Bottled On 20-10-2014; 201014 10:51, L240714 B GRACIAS Appearance: Clear Nose: Cooked and raw agave, anise, almond, minerality, limestone, flowers, citrus, baby oil, green apple, black pepper, brine/salinity, dry earth, and musty…definitely different, a little constrained, but still pleasant Palate: Cooked and raw agave, herbal, mint, eucalyptus, anise, flowers, minerality, limestone, alcohol, citrus, green apple, black pepper, wet cardboard, brine/salinity, almond, and musty…noticeably funky and unique Finish: Raw agave, alcohol, mint, and wet cardboard…medium length, funky, and a medium to viscous mouthfeel Overall: When I used to drink bourbon more regularly, I really loved Wild Turkey’s Rare Breed because of the wet cardboard funkiness it had. I never thought I would get that in a tequila, but here we are (with a blanco, no less). The finish was a little underwhelming and the price was a bit steep, but once I gave this a chance to open up a bit, I was pleasantly surprised.

Nose has a lot of citrus notes, mostly lime zest. Mild agave, but something oddly medicinal as well. Sharp acidic entry which dissipates quickly. Mid-palate is mildly bitter, with a good spicy kick on the roof of my mouth and back of throat. Finish is short, with some honey sweetness. This would be fine at the regular Corazon price point, but it just doesn't justify premium pricing. As such I cannot recommend it.

Strong aroma of raw agave and mineral/rock with a floral undertone. The strong minerality is unusual and a little unpleasant. Nice, thick flavor of agave with a bit of the floral note from the aroma and some black pepper. Finish is pleasantly medium long.

Aroma: the aroma is very interesting I get a subtle hint of raw agave and pepper. The overwhelming note is banana though which is very unique. Usually that's more of a secondary note that I pick up on Flavor: Again, very interesting. It's very subtle and has notes of the agave and pepper but is also slightly floral. Finish: For being so mellow the finish is definitely unexpected. It really hangs on to the back of your mouth and lingers for a while.

Nose: pure agave Mouth: medium body. Silky. Smooth Palate: red wine, agave, balanced. Well water. And something unidentified Finish: medium long , warm. Gets interesting

201014 10:54 L240714 B GRACIAS. One of 9,690 bottles, bottled on 20-10-2014. Aroma: intense sweet & salty cooked agave, black olives, dark flowers, light resinous sweetness, acidity, good sweet sour & acidic balance, sprite, light floral notes, earthy, acitrón, quite expressive! Palate: confirms aroma perceived, salty, briny aroma/sensation is quite intense which masks other flavors and aromas, thick & oily, light floral notes through my restronasal. Finish is medium to medium long, salty & sweet cooked agave notes persist.

Brine, raw agave and herbal in the aromas.

this is a highly rated tequila but I find it way too expensive for the taste. I bought it here in Iowa on sale for $69.99 which was ridiculously overpriced. you can get better tasting for much less, like DJ Blanco. I even like Casamigos Blanco better than this for $30 less. it does make excellent margs but way to pricey for that use.

Strong scent of agave. Complex flavor with a peppery, biting finish.

A nice blanco. Smothe with some complexity. A bit pricy,

Interesting twist on this tequila. The various barrels nearly turn it into something totally different. Excellent craftmanship. However, for the tequila purist, this is more of a whiskey, due to the aging and barrel treatments...

Nice floral aroma with sparkling long finish that doesn't hijack your tongue.

Mint and eucalyptus.. Has a zing intensified by salsa spice. Not really anejo but has zing..
