On the nose, Oak and caramel, masking cooked agave underneath. Some pepper. Whiskey. A touch of vanilla and apple. Fruity. Some citrus. Not bad. On the palate, Sweet agave, and something almost like apple juice. Caramel and vanilla, light whiskey notes. Really not bad, I can’t find any flaws. It’s not mind blowing, but it is pretty solid. I hear there’s diffuser juice mixed in, and that may be the case, but this is just a really easy drinking, clean and perfectly fine tequila. I can see the appeal. It’s got no heat, some tasty flavors, perfect for sipping or shooting, if you’re into that. I may be a little contrarian here, but I think it’s got a place. If you’re gonna drink a super commercial Cuervo product, this would be the one I’d suggest. I think it lacks that distinct diffuser chemical funk.
