Nose of agave and alcohol. Minty sweetness. Fruity. Similar on the palate. The ABV while only 40, overpowers this tequila. Agave and pepper.
* I tried this on a cruise. I have to try this again in a more private setting, because I was far from impressed* The gathered aroma consists of citrus, minerality, alcohol, grassy, and floral notes. On the palate, minerals, brine, scathing alcohol, citrus, and grassiness are encountered. The finish is marked by lemon zest, trailing minerality, and fading grassiness with persistent alcohol.
Surprising. I really enjoyed this blanco.
Aroma is good with light agave but there is some lactic, minerally funk that I don’t know if I appreciate. Taste is pretty good with agave, pepper and light salinity. Finish is good. Nothing super memorable.
Thin and weak (faint) aromas and flavors from start to finish. Not cheap tasting but nothing memorable either. Flavors and aroma increase very slightly upon opening. Would mix with certain recipes but only those where you're not seeking tequila flavor to shine through. Will keep as occasional sipper but probably will never buy again.
I don't pick up much much on the aroma and the flavour had limited complexity and agave. It's a fine inoffensive tequila with out much depth.
Well made Blanco. Agave upfront followed by citrus notes. Price is a little steep when you see compare it to other Blancos. Besides that it’s great.
I bought this bottle without knowing who owns it and I probably wouldn't have given it a chance since I'm not a fan of either of those guys. The good news is my naive approach kept my review honest. Nose- faint agave, olive, and black pepper. Taste- peppery alcohol heat, sweet agave, and some lemon. Mouth feel is thin. Finish- short and dry. Value- at $45 in Michigan I can find things I like more for less money but this Blanco is better than others that cost more. Overall this was better than I expected (and likely the best "celebrity owned" tequila I've had) but it's just an average drink in my opinion. Nothing offensive and nothing outstanding.
Reminds me of the Papa Bueno. I think the PB has more citrus than this does.
Not super complex. Has a nice peppery agave smell on the nose. It doesn’t quite translate to the taste. Short dry finish
Cinnamon, agave, and slight melon aromas. Flavor is cooked agave and some minerals. Full bodied mouthfeel with a long dry finish. Not super complex, but not every tequila needs to be.
Herbal, earthy aromas and cinnamon with a nice oily body, cinnamon taste and spice finish. Medium natural sweetness. Not complex but a good sipper.
Blanco= nice mild notes, but slightly bland for me. Overall, clean and enjoyable to sip. The Repo= 82 creamy, easy sipping. This line is non-offending, but simple basic tequila
For a celebrity tequila, this one has teeth. Good cooked agave and citrus notes. Not my favorite blanco but would definitely drink this blanco again
Pretty solid for a celebrity tequila. I got aromas and flavors of agave, citrus, and light cherry. It's a bit more mellow than I would like, and the price isn't too great for the quality you get. But I wouldn't turn down a glass of this.
This tequila is Lite in agave smell and flavor is like is fading away. In taste a little burn but nothing crazy. When I drink a blanco I expect more agave and this one is lacking of it.
A solid tequila. Aroma is full of floral, alcohol, mineral, vegetal, agave, citrus, mint, lime and smoke. Flavor is sweet with a little bitterness, agave and clove. It finish medium heat with nuts, vegetal, mineral and sweetness.
Nose: Cooked agave, lemon zest, black pepper, hay, and a touch of praline. Butter and mint emerge with time in the glass. Palate: Oily texture with natural agave sweetness up front. Citrus and vanilla build to a creamy orange zest peak with black pepper, mineral, and herbs weaving through. Floral and savory at once. Finish: Gentle warmth, vanilla, orange blossom, steamed agave, and a lingering citrus mint aftertaste. Medium and clean. Overall: A well crafted everyday blanco that punches above its celebrity label. Not the most complex on the shelf but honest, approachable, and additive free. The 110 proof version is the showstopper but this is the daily driver.
Aroma contains notes of vegetal, alcohol, cucumber, and hints of smoke Flavors of vegetal, cucumber, mint, and only hints of cooked agave. Finishes with flavors of vegetal, cucumber, and alcohol. Honestly, the finish burns too much for my liking. This tequila tastes good, but it's rough around the edges. And, while this tequila tastes different from most, I wish the favor of agave was more strong. I would only recommend this to someone who is looking for tequila with prominent vegetal notes. I see this Blanco selling for $40-$50 USD. I think it's worth $40- $45, especially if you like vegetal tequilas. But I think $50 or more is too much to pay, considering the alcoholic burn on the nose and the finish.
Had put this one off for awhile...had the Mezquila...not so impressed, but that was in my early stages of sophistication of the palate...LOL...Anyway, more info led me to grab it...since every time I go to the store....it's El Tesoro or Ocho....just needed to give something else a try. I was pleased. Has a nice aroma if agave....trying to discern whether cooked or raw or both...peppery with light floral notes...maybe nutty or seedy...if you can imagine. on the palate it has the same presence of agave with some very light, dare I say sweet essence, followed by a peppery burn. the finish is alright....light lingering, but not like an agave bomb that lasts and lasts and lasts. Still...a decent libation that I will purchase again. would like to try the repo and give the mezquila another go.
Good aroma, sweet agave and aromatic like faint mint Taste was agave forward , that mint present but not overpowering, slight pepper. Medium mouthfeel Medium clean finish
Very bright flavor, citrus and cracked black pepper and just enough Agave to keep me happy.
Solid Blanco, Reposado is a bit better. Easy to sip on. No fruit needed. At an ice ball if needed.
My bottle was before they changed to the clear bottle. It was agave forward but had a lot of black pepper on the backend.We all enjoyed it in a cocktail and even more with watermelon slices. Not something I'd reach for everyday but I wouldn't turn it down either.
