Pretty overpriced for a “meh” blanco.

adjusting for tasting at the distillery Arette Blanco suave tasting at the tasting room in tequila march 2025 Nice easy sipper. Agave pepper. Siome mint. Warm peppery sweet Finish

Nose is cooked agave, pepper and vegetal. Taste is cooked agave, pepper and vegetal. The glass was a Chisholm Standard Proof Jarrito.

Tried at Bararette in Tequila Jalisco on 9/12/24. Nose has agave and lots of mint. Taste is similar with pepper, citrus and mint.

I like the nose on this one it starts out peppery and then turns cooked agave. It has a great cooked agave flavor with an earthy taste and then a smooth finish. Great value as well.

The aroma jumps out with lychee, raisins ,a lemon and lime citrus note that are working in tandem, light ethyl, distinct minerality, herbal tones, and fresh summer grass. On the palate, delicious minerality is accompanied by a prominent lychee note, fruit, lemon zest, distinct citrus, smokey tones, cooked agave, and noticeable but balanced brine. The finish features fresh grassiness intertwined with minutely faint smoke and fading agave, creating a lingering and nuanced conclusion.

Well made blanco. Nose of cooked agave, brine, vegetable, and slight citrus Taste- cooked agave, brine, herbal, vegetable, mineralality, pepper With a short finish

Aroma of cooked agave, grass and minerals. Flavor of cooked agave, black pepper and minerals. Medium finish.

A – Aroma is straightforward, cooked agave, limestone, olive, brine, lemongrass, anise, ginger, allspice, mint, slight citrus. I’m picking up a hint of cocoa.   T – There is a nice alcohol tingle on the tip of my tongue before settling into the cooked agave, black pepper, minerals, some orchard fruit, celery, anise, and mint. F – I enjoyed the finish, very solid blanco. Overall – This is a well-made, quality blanco; a solid example of the expression.

This was my favorite out of a blind tasting of the top 10 additive-free blancos. I've had the regular Blanco from them before and it was meh. But this was incredible. N- unique nose out of all the samples. Cedar, wet pavement, moist soil, mint T- is that oak? earthy agave, and just tastes dusty but in a good way (I bet you've never heard that description before), bell pepper MF- oily F- Medium and balanced finish

Smells of grass, mint, pepper, a bit of alcohol. Fairly straightforward. A bold flavor! Savory, meaty notes like roasted mushroom mixed with limestone. A long and hot finish. Very interesting Blanco, but not my style.

Aroma: agave sweetness, herbal, wet grass Flavor: agave, pepper, tongue numb Finish: short thin, cooked agave, spices

Nice agave and floral notes on the nose. More of the same flavors with some pepper and slight citrus added in. It feels a bit thin in the mouth but has a nice lasting tingle. 84 Just got to try an older bottle in the blue tin and angled bottle style. Cooked agave sweetness! Bottle is (at least 10 years?) and still has great legs and tastes delicious. Edition# OKD23-B, Lot H201032, Bottle #807. 88

Nose: agave forward, honey, green apple, stone Taste: great minerality. Tastes like rain water and agave. This is absolutely delicious Finish: warm, oily, no mouth buzz This tastes like a high quality tequila.

Agave, anise nose, nice mouthfeel and minty taste. Very pleasant!

vegetal agave on the nose. Very oily. pallet is a bit muted but easy to drink. Finish is a bit angry, definitely gave me some tongue numbing but in a nice way saying hey, I'm here

Thanks Dustin. Aroma is really good with floral and sweet perfume. Taste is is good with agave and not-quire-ripe pineapple. Taste also has a hint of nail polish remover but surprisingly not in a bad way! Finish is a a little light with some bitter alcohol. Overall good but with some distinct flavors. Revising my score November 20 25. Tasting at the distillery in Tequila! I’m going up five points. From aroma to finish this is better than my original 80 score. Fresh and green and very aromatic.

Cooked agave, sweetness, hay, yams. Palate: agave, spices, salt, lime, grass, mild alcohol, pepper. Finish long with spicy agave.

When I do tasting/educational events, this is one of my go to’s for people who aren’t into sipping blancos yet. I love this one from Arette! Very soft and approachable on the palette. Hint of green veggies, mint, earthy and minerals on the finish.

This has a similar nose to #4 with some smoke though not as acrid acrid. A little thin this has some slight sweetness and a good vegetal presence as in yams or similar root vegetables. Finishes with some roast pepper and grill notes.

The Orendain brothers did a great job with this tequila. It’s different, and that’s a good thing, for me. It’s highly vegetal and mineraly. And the finish is long. It has raw and cooked agave and pepper at the front with a pronounced anise flavor that dominates the middle with a lavender and peach finish.

This rating is for an Old School Green Cap so I found this to be much better the the new ones that are out. Nice and oily mouthfill with a long finish. Great Sipper

Exactly what I’m looking for, agave forward with enough smoothness to make this truly dangerous. Old school style with hot finish, a welcome change from all the sweet tequilas on the market. Too expensive to make cocktails.

38% Mexican product. 2009 tax stamp. Nose: Spicy, tree fruit, agave notes, and wet rocks. Flavor: Almost caramel like agave richness. Anise and mouth filling spiciness, some earthiness. Some pepper bitterness.

This is what I would call a agricole tequila. Big floral and vegetal nose. Crazy unique flavor. Mineral aftertaste. Long finish that evolves. Not my type of tequila but an interesting experience.
