NOM 1459 | Candy tequila ! IMHO this tequila does not seem natural. Too sweet!

  • 72 Rating

NOM 1146 | I don’t detect any particularly inviting flavours off the nose, I just get a whiff of alcohol. Really grassy with mint taking over mid palette, I expected this to be the exact same juice as the Blanco but it doesn’t seem as sweet. Calm, easy aftertaste makes this dangerous with an ice cube on a hot day.

Big vanilla nose and flavor. Very sweet scented at first - almost artificial - but mellowed the further to got into it.

CAKE

Smells like you are walking into a candy store. The prevailing notes are almond and vanilla which leave me wondering how this occurs naturally. The flavor initially gives a hint of agave and cinnamon but ends with strong vanilla and almond tastes (which last long past the finish). In the end, this tequila just leaves me with a bunch of questions.

Aroma seems unnatural/manipulated - vanilla, almond, cake batter. Flavor has some spice and agave that cuts but does not eliminate the sweetness noted in the aroma. Long, persistent finish lingers with a spiciness.

Mild but suspicious scent makes you wonder or at least hope this will taste better; nope. The alcohol bite is too strong and fails to be compensated with flavor. The aftertaste lingers unhappily. Unlike others, the margarita does not mask the tequila flavor well enough to enjoy the drink. The bottle is definitely the best thing about buying this spirit.

NOM 1146 | Little alcohol and valnilla

  • 65 Rating

smell: hints of sweetness such as vanilla and sugarcane taste: slight smooth anise and agave flavor with no bite almost delicate. after taste: sharp medicinal flavor with agave hints went from excitement to a letdown. But overall, this is a fair blanco

NOM 1146 | The bottle turns people off. It isn’t a big name, but gimmicks asida, it actually isn’t bad as a mixer or shot/sipping.

Decent blanco but there are better out there at this price point

Earthy citrus nose, quite unique. Body is sweet, but kind of flat. Finish is lackluster.

  • 87 Rating

Really good tequila. Aroma has some grassy, sweet notes but a bit of a burn on the nose. Flavor has an initial hit of sweetness that transitions into grassy, agave, cinnamon, vanilla that then finishes sweet again with nice smoothness. Got as part of a package deal, so value was good.

A very nice blanco that I would put up there with Avion. Can sip this straight no problem. Not much to distinguish itself but it doesn't really need to. What it does it does well. Great aroma and flavour and pretty smooth. Worth the price.

Not my cup of tea (too much Olive) for a sipping tequila however my No. 1 in Margaritas!!

  • 80 Rating

Poor sense of smell: vanilla & agave Taste: agave, vanilla, slightly peppery, earthy, spicy, & more which i cannot discern. Smooth and slightly sweet. Clean finish with lingering flavor. Nice glass stopper in a small velvet bag, & ladies can enjoy the shape of the bottle after or during consumation!
