Monterey Tequila and Mezcal Fest. The aroma and taste reflects similar notes of, topical fruit ,lemon citrus , noticeable ethyl, light floral, grassiness. The finish is where the grassiness and tangs fades gracefully. I was surprised at how fruit forward with a bit of tang this tasted to me. I will undoubtedly pick up a bottle to get a full experience.

This is an average blanco. The nose has a great deal of citrus. Yes agave is there but is smells like a breakfast juice. I get a little anise and some agave. The palate is also very citrusy. Some mint and agave. Finish is fine and in concert with the palate. I’d drink it again but not one of my top dogs.

Very smooth, heavy agave and nutty finish. Not too peppery. A very well made tequila I would have rated higher but it is a bit pricey for a blanco.

Nose: Agave, Earth, Coconut, Banana, Butter, Almond, Cherry, Bubblegum Mouthfeel: Medium to full- bodied Palate: Chocolate, Banana, Pepper Minerality Finish: Butter, Coconut, Chocolate, Banana, Earthy, Bubblegum This was definitely a unique pour. The sweet flavors were really front and center. Almond, Chocolate, Coconut and Banana. At times, it felt like the tequila equivalent of an AlmondJoy. The banana seems to come through more and more as it opens up. This is a solid tequila but its also one that I don't see myself seeking out very often. Those chocolate and sweet fruity notes and flavors might strike me more on a hot day at the beach or after certsin desert dishes.

Fruity aroma with agave (cooked and raw), citrus, and anise. Enjoyable flavor profile that echoed the aromas.

tried a small sample at LATF house 9/22 anise fruit citrus agave, some funk that made it unique. fun sipper. I enjoyed it.

Tasted at MBTC 2023. The Final Event.

Nose- little Maletic funkiness, minerality, citrus anise, pepper Flavor- this is where it really shines. Cooked agave followed by little orange peel citrus mixed with a bitter dark chocolate. Very nice

Great aroma, pepper, agave, mint. lighter on the flavor and finish. Really good overall.

Light aroma and taste, except for lots of pepper in both.

Let it open up… Aroma is raw agave, pepper, herbal and vegetal (Low to medium complexity) Taste is better! Took off points for high price… dope and unique bottle for sure.

Relatively subtle aroma, but very bright and clean. More raw agave than cooked agave. Also, some minerality and grassiness. Tastes, very clean and lively, quite a bit of anise, and agave. A lemon grass character as well. Very long and juicy finish for a Blanco. Perhaps a bit more expensive than I want to pay for a Plata like this. However, a very solid tequila overall.

Creamy, mineral, mint, citrus, anise, pepper. High price, glad someone shared a glass with me!

Nose: citrus, star anise, tropical notes, and cooked agave Flavor: citrus, tropical fruit, earthy, cooked agave, sweetness from cooked agave, and has an oily mouth feel and is well balanced Finish: medium finish that has a lot of pepper

Really interesting Blanco. Very unique nose. Balanced flavors of citrus, anise, white pepper and cooked agave. Great package, price point a little high at $85 a bottle just coming out of the gate.

The nose is very fragrant. I get lime zest, bright fruit notes and some anise / mint. Its a has a high viscosity. I taste buttery cooked agave, minerals, some vegetal notes, and spearamint before the slight peppery finish. This is a nice tequila! Its well made and tastes great.

Nice aromas of tropical fruit, mint/anise and cooked agave with an oily mouthfeel and peppery finish. Naturally sweet and balanced.

Thin legs, but hold on and take a long time to develop. nose, cooked agave mint and citrus zest. palate, sweet agave, and this sounds a little different, but i get milk chocolate covered hazelnuts. long finish. I am really enjoying this light and bright but full of flavor.

On the Nose: cooked agave, cider, apple, ginger On the Palate: bright citrus, cooked agave, thyme, white pepper umami finish

The nose isn’t anything crazy. But the taste is so good. Buttery smooth. I get citrus, anise, and chocolate. Honestly, like a delicious chocolate covered orange. The finish is so smooth. Couldn’t stop drinking.

This is a clean flavor packed sipping plata. I have not heard of this before but my local bar has it and loved it. I enjoyed the buttery earthy nuance very bright and almost endless flavors and aromas. Very surprising from 40abv this complexity I usually find in a hp.

Aroma: Cooked and Raw Agave, Earthy, Loads of Minerality, Citrus, Cinnamon/Black Pepper, Anise, Herbal, Slight Fruity and Floral Taste: Cooked Earthy Agave, Anise, Vegetal, Citrus, Black Pepper, Herbal, touch of Fruit.

Cooked agave on the nose and palate. The nose was weak and unimpressive. If you let this linger in your mouth you get the citrus that many reviewers describe. The lingering also causes a bit of tongue and lip tingle.(pleasant) There’s a medium finish with more, mild, cooked agave. I didn’t get the anise that others mentioned. It could stand to lose a few bucks off the price but it is not outrageous. I do like the bottle look but that is not a reason to buy any tequila.

Nose: sweet cooked agave, fruity notes like pineapple and green apple and pear, black pepper, lime zest and mint Palate: sweet cooked agave, green apple, mint, anise, lemon zest, white pepper, and a touch of minerality.

a well-made agave forward Blanco
