Aroma: lemon/lime/grapefruit with a little grilled meat. Memorable and lovely Taste: citrus, a bit vegetal, with floral notes. Mid-weight viscosity Finish: moderately long. Starts off a bit weird, but actually improves over time. Fair price at $49
Nose: grapefruit soda, floral, mint Palate: cooked agave, bright citrus, grapefruit zest, and pepper. Scattered floral notes.
This one is very interesting. On the nose the first thing I got was a smell of chocolate like dark chocolate and then from there I get a citrus and a minty smell. Taste nice citrus cinnamon agave and a little floral and also a little buttery with a nice mouth feel The finish it’s great too I get some grapefruit and it is long lasting This is a good one
This is about as good as my mouth can handle. It’s a delicioso Blanco that rival Fortaleza/Los Abuelos… it’s that good!
Vessel: Chisholm Trail Jarrito Nose: Lemon, Lime, Grapefruit, Agave, Mint, Anise Palate: Lime, Pepper, Minerality Finish: Grapefruit, Black Pepper, Agave La Pulga really knows how to highlight the citrus notes. Lemon and Lime were the dominant citrus notes of the nose, more on the lime side for the palate. The finish was a full-fledged grapefruit bomb. Long lasting finish. This was a remarkably unique spirit, and I'm excited to try it in fancy citrus cocktails or a ranch water. That said, it is also perfectly suitable to sip on like I'm doing now.
I picked this up in Texas for $40 and it is amazing. The alcohol presence on smell and taste is extremely minimal. Very green. Super easy to sip. Multiple flavor profiles. My bottle has the TMM additive free sticker! If you see this, don’t think, just buy!!
It's Sunday! Sipping Sunday!! Happy National Silent Movie Day!!! Tonight's pour comes from NOM 1068 Agroindustria Guadalajara, La Pulga Blanco. The brand was founded by famous Restauranteur Sarah Castillo, Club owner and Operator of the Northside Open-Air Market Andrew De La Torre, and Stephen Slaughter an Entrepreneur and Real Estate Developer. La Pulga literally translates to "the flea". In this case, La Pulga refers to the open air market on the Northside of Ft Worth. A very diverse atmosphere and rich in culture, La Pulga has served the community since the 1940's as one of the oldest "Flea Markets" in the country! Agaves are harvested once they've met an optimal sugar content. Then Cooked in a combination of High Pressure Autoclave and Stone Brick Ovens. Extraction of juices is done by Roller Mill and Deep Well Water is added. Fermintation happens in Stainless Steel Tanks for 3 to 6 days before being distilled twice in Stainless Steel Pot Stills. Aroma: Sweet Agave, Earth, and Cinnamon blend together at the beginning. You can get a sense for the minerality. Grapefruit and Lemon act in unison for the Citrus component. Anise, Mint, and a Herbal quality are present. Tart Apple hints in here too. There is also a little Raw Agave note and a little Vegetal note as well. And a Fruity blending with a light Cream Soda rounds this out. Taste: Sweet Cooked Agave certainly meets you! Green Tart Apple and Spicy Cinnamon follow the Agave. Black Pepper is also part of the Spicy characteristics. There's a little Earthy and Mineral complexity to the taste. Grapefruit is the overwhelming distict Citrus flavor. All the Green components transfer from the nose to the taste with Anise, Mint, Herbal and Vegetal. Finish: The Sweet Agave stays long mixing with the Spicy Cinnamon/Pepper notes. And the Grapefruit rides long too with a slight touch of the Anise and Mint. TMM- 86 Salud!!!
Very light aroma, simple yet elegant. Great agave notes, a little earthy, vegetal, and peppery with some mild mineral hints. Flavor is a bit stronger with some metallic and alcohol, earthy, vegetal. and peppery too. Finish is even stronger but has a hint of solvent or acetone. Not my favorite blanco but I'd drink it again.
Fresh open aroma: lots of minerality. Mint is very present. Good agave notes as well Taste: strong agave followed by slight alcohol and mint. Good mineral notes as well. Very buttery and “smooth”. Finish: WOW. the finish is sweet and minty! One of the best finishes I’ve had.

LOTE EB18510T07, acquired on June 2023.

Classic tequila profile, baked agave and peppery finish. Nose is on light side with classic black pepper. Wet cement earthiness. Good vegetal flavors.

The nose isn’t my favorite type of nose as it is very earthy, vegetal with agave and cinnamon. The palate is much better. Nice and sweet agave with cinnamon and citrus. I do get the earthiness and minerality.
