Almost the same nose as the blanco with a slight touch of caramel and barrel notes. Palate is that similar profile, agave, citrus and some pepper that’s rounded out with some leather notes and baking spices. Finish is easy, brief to medium and overall it’s thoroughly a great bargain. Could pass as a sipper better than the blanco, but still best situated as a mixer.
The earth and vegetal notes of the Blanco are made more mellow here. In return, you get a nice dose of cinnamon, caramel, and oak. Finish is nice and decently long.
This a very standard, run of the mill blanco. The flavor profile is basic and inoffensive, with some sweet cooked agave, spicy white pepper, alongside some earth and vegetal notes. From a budget standpoint this tequila is a very strong contender. I got this 1 L bottle for $23 (an equivalent $17.25 for 750 mL), which is less expensive than other budget brands I typically see like Olmeca Altos or Tres Agaves. Not to mention Cimarron seems to have a richer, more traditional flavor. This can easily compete with bottles you might see in the 40 dollar range.
The nose is delicate. I smell some cooked agave with hints of vanilla and oak. The is a sweet ethanol note that’s actually pleasant. I taste sweet cooked agave, caramel and a whiskey oak barrel. It’s more dry than sweet and it has a nice finish with hints of pepper. This was $27 for a liter in Austin, TX. The depth of flavor would be its shortcoming but for the price this is a must buy. Salud!
