Awesome 1123 notes! Butter cream, agave, some fruitiness, just all around balanced brightness they i always love, an easy buy for me
Light and flighty. … this a nice sipper with a nose of light agave and mineral freshness On the pallet it’s similar agave, minerals, citrus and lime.
Comparing this against the regular Cascahuin plata, 48, wild common, and legado. This has got it all and only falls a little short on flavor compared to the HP. The price is right, I’m on the lookout for more!
Earthy, mineral, citrus aroma. Flavors of brine, minerals, lime—but it’s fairly one dimensional. Nice legs but thin mouthfeel with a warm yet fairly short finish. Low end of 1123 pricing, but also overall experience. Probably a cocktail tequila for me.
Very interesting citrus component to the flavor profile that I like. Healthy amount of ethanol carrying several other Cascahuin elements from the water and the process. This is worth exploring more. Thanks Tom for the sample
June 11 2024 aguasol blanco samples from Tom H. thanks Tom! nose: I really enjoy the nose on this. it starts with minerality & fruit with hints of cracked pepper and anise. taste: sweet cooked agave, pepper, minerality, grass finish: flavor falls off with lingering pepper on the tongue. other: Legs are nice, not too thick. this would be a good blanco for cocktails, especially with the price under $40
Muted agave nose, palate and boring finish. Points for price at $39 for a budget Blanco.
Agave, sweetness, brine and citric on the nose. Bitter notes on the front end, peppery and light agave notes. I enjoy most products from 1123, but this one is not one of my top ones from Cascahuin. Not bad but not their best.
Little brother of Cascahuin Blanco. Solid blanco for cocktails and versatile enough for sipping occasionally
Nose : Vegetal , minerality , terroir , slight alcohol Taste : Sweet initial taste , citrus , fruity , agave the body goes into a minerality and earthy taste with a creamy texture , finishes peppery salty and briny Very solid for price I got it at 24.99 very complex for a Blanco . Will definitely buy again .
Similar notes as what you would find from other 1123 blancos. Delicious tequila at a great price. $40 -2025
Aroma: Sweet Cooked Agave blends with a mix of Fruits, Ripe Melon and Green Apple are the dominant touches. A very Lime forward Citrus note finishes these fruits forward notes. The usually noticeable Black Pepperiness that Cascahuin is known for isn't as pronounced as others from the distillery. Green touches of Mint, Anise, Herbal, and Grass help bring some balance to this profile. A light Floralness is detected at the top of the Chisholm Trail Jarrito. Other prominent notes of Earth and Minerals round this out. Taste: Sweet Cooked Agave and Black Pepper are the first things tasted. A light Vegetal and Grass note follows. From there the Fruity flavors of Apple, Melon, and Papaya mix into the profile along with Lime. The Mint on this really comes off as refreshing Spearmint. There is also a touch of Herbs like Thyme and Tarragon. The Tarragon note isn't as bitter as a true Anise flavor. All of these flavors have the balance of the Earthy, Minerally, and Petrichor touches. Finish: The finish had a shorter run than can be usually attributed to tequilas produced at Cascahuin. The Sweet Agave and Pepperiness along with the Fruity components were carried from beginning to end with a light reminder of the Spearmint. Overall this was a good pour. This would be a good inexpensive starter tequila for new people to the category. Aficionados will appreciate the flavors, but feel it comes up a little short compared to other brands produced by the Distillery. If the abv of this were pumped up to 46-48 it would allow these toned down flavors to Pop!!! TMM--84 Salud!!!
Aroma: agave, black pepper, mineral, earth Taste: black pepper, vegetal, mineral, agave Finish: medium finish with black pepper & vegetal notes $35 at Total Wine, good budget blanco
Cooked agave, light citrus, anise, vanilla, pepper, and earthy. Bitterness on the back end and a short finish. Was expecting more from this since it’s coming out of NOM 1123… a bit of a let down. Bought in Colorado Springs for $43
I love everything about it except the high price. I don't live anywhere near where it is sold so had to find online.
I enjoyed this blanco. Very earthy and lots of minerality along with agave. Its solid and the winner between it and the repo.
Very clean, fundamental glass. Texture is slightly oily, in a very pleasant way. Not as much citrus as I expected on the nose. Slightly earthy, slightly vegetal. Not quite floral, but definitely on the black pepper spectrum on both the nose and taste. The spectrum doesn’t go so far as salty brine, but there is a very clear mineral essence at the front of my senses. There’s not enough heat on the finish to associate with black pepper, but it’s not sweet enough to make me think of cooked agave. Excellent glass, especially for >$40.
On the nose a lot of agave and citrus Flavor great cooked agave a lot of mineral definitely can tell this is from NOM 1123 The finish has a hint of agave a lot of min of mineral taste and its very spicy the finish is long. To me this is a fantastic separate a great price
All the 1123 goodness for a fraction of the price. Less complex than Cascahuin Tahona and Lagrimas, but really nice intro to blanco sipping. And the price… can’t be beat.
Nose: cooked agave, mineral, alcohol, anise, brininess. 1123 signature Taste: agave forward, mineral, bite drinks hot but quick, dry
Less intense or peppery than the reposado. Also less expensive making it a slightly better value. So close to the reposado just a different flavor and aroma. Very smooth finish for a tequila. I prefer to drink 2 oz of it over one ice cube.
Can't believe this is made at 1123. falls short on so many fronts. Strong ethanol, muted flavors. Maybe I just had high expectations knowing where this was made.
Great citrus and jalapeno notes on the nose. Definitely herbal and green like I expected out of Cascahuin. Slight sweetness and back with the green peppers flavor wise. Decent minerality.
