Nose: Powerful from the start. Crisp citrus jumps out. Ripe agave then shows up. Shortly followed by grass and herbs. Palate: Silky smooth with a great mouth feel and body. Generally, sweet, agave, with a floral element. Mild herbs of mint, dill, and bell pepper. Finish is pleasant and the spice grows as it settles. Nice pour. Somewhat simple but absolutely enjoyable

Aroma/Taste: This tequila has a blend of musty aromas, notably parmesan cheese and yeast, complemented by notes of dill, cooked agave, nutmeg, and cola. Upon tasting, there's a distinct white pepper heat at the tip of the tongue, with a hint of jalapeño. The palate offers layers of anise and black licorice, mingling with mint, and a rich sweetness from cooked agave. Finish: The initial spice gives way to a very balanced finish, leaving a medicinal maraschino cherry note lingering at the end. Overall: Tasted blind, I enjoyed this tequila. While medicinal notes on the tip of the tongue and finish might be slightly pronounced, they do not detract significantly from the experience. A second pour would be worthwhile to explore its evolution in the glass.

Nose: earth / faint agave/ light minerality / vegetal-hay/ hint of citrus / lemongrass / gardenia??/ alcohol Taste: sweet cooked agave / light pepper / pineapple/ melon / lime / licorice/ spearmint/ hint of cream soda Finish: very light viscous mouthfeel/ lingering light agave sweetness and a mild pepper contrast / clean bright minty finish This blanco has some nice mild sweetness and some earthy and peppery notes that are good but they seem to be at odds with each other. This tequila lacks balance; the tasting notes aren’t working together so much as they’re just on the field at the same time. The nose is quite weak and leaves a lot to be desired there.

This tequila showcases an aroma medley of earthy cooked agave, citrus, herbal notes of sage, with some hints of anise, mint, and bell pepper. The flavor is light and vegetal, with a bit of earthy funk, and an interesting array of garden herbs, primarily sage. On the finish, the vegetal agave earthiness again comes through, blended with citrus, black pepper, and a nice minerality.

This is my every day house blanco. So inexpensive but so good. Look at the process used to make this and then the price. Unbelievable! Nose of cooked agave, sweet potato, citrus fruit. Taste is agave forward, slightly earthy and spice. Good finish that lingers about medium length. One of the great values in my opinion. The More I drink this one the more I can recommend this as an inexpensive option. It is just so well balanced and traditional. Try this in place of your daily sipper. For a great mixer, get the Still Strength

Slight funk on the nose with a crisp, cooked agave flavor. Short and pleasant finish.

This Blanco, in totality, reminds me of Imaginary Author’s Saint Julep. The aroma is green and crisp with agave, citrus, grass, herbaceous, pepper, and salinity. There’s an was unexpected and continuous sweetness with the first tastes, like an overripe honeydew with lemon citrus, green grapes, salinity, yellow bell pepper, and yeast. An herbaceous drink through and through with the finish being agave and water that leaves a long lingering savory trail. An excellent Value at 30$

I had tried the aged expressions but not the blanco, this is quite good. It tastes like a blanco tequila should taste - cooked agave with a herbal undertone. Gets several points due to value as it is priced very competitively for a tahona-produced tequila.

a little more peppery than I prefer

It's a very solid tequila. Once you let this open up you get a diversity of flavor out of this. It's peppery and vegetal with notes of citrus. Pretty reasonable on the price as well.

One of the most disappointing blancos I’ve had. I’ve heard so much of this brand and this was a huge let down!

Good option for a budget tequila, great foundation with slightly complex profile Excellent price

On the nose, it is very earthy, cooked agave. Vegetal, very “green”. Fresh cut grass, hint of lime, maybe a bit of orange peel. herbal. On the palate, I get sweet and vegetal notes and cooked agave. Definitely a little pepper. Minerals, definitely earthy. Revisiting again, it’s a solid blanco, pleasurable to sip if you’re looking for a nice, full bodied and earthy tequila, but I feel it doesn’t really get good until half the bottle is gone and it’s opened up.

I wasn’t expecting this to be this good! So fun to find new good ones. Aroma is ok with agave, pepper and some alcohol, undertones of light citrus. Taste is the best part: smooth creamy agave with a hint of citrus and minerals. Taste is pleasantly on the sweet side. Finish is ok, short and pleasant.

A great bargain but too much grass for me to enjoy. The aged expressions are the true winners of the line.

Smell of vanilla,agave,citrus. taste has a little bite of alcohol some pepper lots of citrus little vanilla. Great finish Re-taste 2024 blonco challenge: Nose-rich cooked agave forward, Honey, pepper Taste- wow love the mouth feel nice and silky, cooked agave upfront , followed by mint, slight fruitiness (melons) and vanilla, slight bit of brine, little anise before a nice white pepper on the back end.

Nice viscosity on the glass. Crystal clear. The aroma is cooked and raw agave, floral, ethanol, not overly complex. Nice mouthfeel with a little burn up front, more raw agave & slight bitterness, then a touch of sweet cooked agave on a medium finish. Again not overly complex but a solid sipper and fantastic value!

The nose is full of green vegetal agave. I taste the agave and some citrus. The finish is bright. Overall it seems like a one note tequila but it done to perfection. If you like blancos you’ll like this one.

Aroma : Agave, citrus, vegetal, grass notes. Taste : Cooked agave with a unique grassy character, along with black pepper and citrus. This is slightly bitter, but with nice oils. Finish : Medium in length with more citrus and grass. Some salinity. The grassy notes I get with this one are akin to Olmeca Altos, but this seems to have a bit more depth.

Fresh agave, cut grass and slight notes of black licorice. Big Pepper and agave hit, fades into some celery with a nice, long finish. Great heat sitting on the back of the throat.

Clean and crisp. This expression has cooked agave, citrus and earthy tones on the nose. Pepper, minerals and agave dominate. It has a wonderful sweetness to it (a good natural-occuring sweetness that you get from a horno and tahona). One of my favorite brands.

Sample #1 • Visual: clear with thin clear edge • Initial nasal impact: drying w/slight prickle • Aroma: cooked agave, citrus - lime + pineapple, pear, cinnamon • Initial mouthfeel: oily w/sufficient alcohol • Flavor: honey, floral, grapefruit, chalky + lactic • Finish: drying med - long, some dried pineapple and fresh jalapeno linger throughout

Nose: Cooked agave, grapefruit and citrus, minerals and a root vegetable note reminiscent of carrots or parsnips. Complex flavors all over the board: pepper, cinnamon and cloves, pumpkin and agave. Flavors build... Finish is a creeper and has staying power. Usually the tequila nose is my high point. The flavors are the star for me in this tequila.

An agave forward blanco, nice and light with delicious citrus, fruit, stone/mineral and earthy tones with lots of cooked agave. A solid clean and well-made tequila.
