Lote M77 Noban Tequila Blanco

93 SCORE

“Lote M77 is the kind of blanco that sneaks up on you in the best way. I usually drink my tequila neat, and this one held up beautifully. I wasn’t sure about the subtle smokiness at first, but it opened up beautifully. Cooked agave leads the way, backed by mineral depth, earth, and a clean finish that lingers without ever feeling harsh. It’s balanced, well-crafted, and clearly made with intention. At this price point, for an additive-free micro-batch blanco, it’s a strong value. I’d gladly pour it again, and already have. Finished the bottle in one sitting with a friend, says it all. Aroma: Cooked agave, minerality, subtle fruit and smoke layered, well-structured. Flavor: Smooth, agave-forward, evolving with depth and a clean smokiness. Finish: Long, earthy, clean. No burn or artificial residue. Value: For additive-free, small-batch quality, very solid value. ”
