Aroma: Light and vegetal, with hints of cooked agave and melon. Flavor: A nice, clean minerality, with a very slight sweetness to it. Finish: Cooked agave and black pepper on the finish. Some bite but very pleasant. Overall: A well made, easy to sip tequila that holds it own. Very light in color and on barrel influence.
I bought this bottle without knowing who owns it and I probably wouldn't have given it a chance since I'm not a fan of either of those guys. The good news is my naive approach kept my review honest. Nose- faint agave, olive, and black pepper. Taste- peppery alcohol heat, sweet agave, and some lemon. Mouth feel is thin. Finish- short and dry. Value- at $45 in Michigan I can find things I like more for less money but this Blanco is better than others that cost more. Overall this was better than I expected (and likely the best "celebrity owned" tequila I've had) but it's just an average drink in my opinion. Nothing offensive and nothing outstanding.
Reminds me of the Papa Bueno. I think the PB has more citrus than this does.
