A solid value for a total wine brand but I still think there's better options at this price point. It was noticeably better than the Blanco. Still didn't get a ton of notes off the smell and was still missing the agave. However you can taste the barrel aging in the viscosity of the tequila, it had a great mouth feel, and wasn't overly sweet.
When you think of tequila for college parties and whatnot, that's what this Blanco reminded me of. It smelled like tequila, not agaves. The taste was much better and citrus notes came through clearly but that was about it. I didn't get much agave from smell or taste. I tasted the lineup at total wine and the brand rep made sure to note that it is a total wine brand and also mentioned how it was smooth a lot. It was pretty smooth to drink but tequila is not meant to be smooth.

This expression might be the best of the bunch. You pick up right away the barrel spices and aging. It comes through strong in the taste and after taste too. If you want a tequila that tastes and finishes like a whiskey, this is a great bottle to grab.
