Nose: earth / minerals / olive / hint of agave / hint of green apple / orange peel / lemongrass/ hint of lavender/ alcohol Taste: sweet agave cooked / cinnamon/ vanilla/ peppermint / hint of apple and fruit / lime & orange / other citrus / licorice/ peppermint/ hint of cream soda Finish: very light viscous mouthfeel/ sweet agave-licorice tastes are in some level of balance with the cinnamon-peppermint notes / lingering sweetness that is refreshing and ends on a minty flavor. This blanco HP is quite tasty, though the nose is weak. At 45% abv, this HP hides the alcohol very well behind a huge sweetness that is agave snd licorice flavors. The overall taste is good and thoroughly enjoyable especially if you like a sweet/cinnamon pepper profile. Nice job El Mexicano!
Nose: agave/ caramel / oak / butter/ coconut/ herbal/ tea / nutmeg/ chocolate/ almond Taste: cooked agave / pepper/ sweet vanilla/ caramel/ banana/ orange peel/ mint / nutmeg/ maple / chocolate/ alcohol Finish: heavy pepper and alcohol on first part of taste, with a bittersweet earthy non-viscous mouthfeel. This reposado has some heavy bittersweet and spicy pepper end and a lingering alcohol and peppery finish. The tastes it has don’t work great together, but they are also only fighting for individual attention, which takes away balance.
Aroma: Cooked agave, butter, caramel oak, grapes (wine), citrus and butterscotch. Flavor: Cooked agave, bitter, caramel, citrus, mint, and a little musty. I would recommend this as it’s an affordability priced additive free brand with lots of great smells and flavors, oaky but not woody and none of the flavors are too intense.
Nose is full of agave followed by minerals and black pepper. I find it earthy with a hint of grass. Taste is peppery and salty. Strong alcohol which obfuscates the flavors. This is okay and is a value HP but there are better options.
Beautiful nose. Cooked agave caramel and vanilla. I get a little oak from the barrel. Taste is good but nothing special. It is oak heavy with agave and black pepper I am getting caramel and if you like whiskey this may be for you
Quality repo pour. Vanilla, clove, pepper with orange zest and a hint of oak and Carmel on the back end. Elements of whiskey barrel influence and fruit. I enjoyed this pour a lot. A brand that I did not know much about until trying this tequila. Fantastic sipper which I am eager to explore deeper.
A good amount of minerality, pepper some citrus. It's a solid choice.
