Quite possibly the best budget friendly repo out there. Big bang for your buck. Not the most complex, but works well as a sipper and even better as a mixer. 1146 can do no wrong and keeps proving it with this line. Bonus points for price fo' sho'...
Aroma is fairly neutral, with maybe some possible barrel notes and alcohol. Flavor reveals some vanilla, and a tiny bit of agave. It does have a nice thick mouthfeel. Finish is sweet, but lacking drama or personality. This is one of the few cristalinos that don’t use additives, so that’s good. But it’s also a great example of what you get when you age something only to filter out the color along with the aroma and flavor.
Nose- Agave, clay, citrus, faint alcohol Taste- Sweet cooked agave, butter, cinnamon, brine, and some earthy and vegetal notes Mouth feel- medium bodied and perfectly oily Finish- the sweet flavors drop off almost immediately. Some peppery alcohol heat lingers but not long enough. Value- I know my review reads like I didn't like it but I absolutely did. This Blanco was strange and wonderful but it fell just short of epic. That being said it's only $25 for a liter in Michigan making this one of the all time great values in agave. It just dethroned Azteca Azul as my go-to budget brand.

Why does good tequila have to be so damn expensive? It doesn’t! Even though there are a variety of tequilas at wide-ranging price points, buying a cheap tequila can feel like a risky proposition for many people.
