Ok to good all around. Aroma has some underripe agave funk. Taste is good and clean but simple. Finish brings back a little aroma funk but has some good heat and a hint of grapefruit rind.

A mixer tequila brand, (de batalla) & cheap at $30 Basic profile, nothing that will amaze you besides the price. Not sure if I’ll buy to sip, but it’s a good choice for a party… Quick hints of cooked agave (fade away quickly). Lots of pepper, petrichor (wet desert earth), grass, citrus, herbal (mint) Finish is medium-long, somewhat velvety and bitter (debating a small defect, but barely noticeable)

Sweet agave and some wet grass on the nose. Opens with some pepper, slightly thin mouth feels. Some good heat that sits on the tongue, a good linger.

I like this. Interesting story behind this brand if you care to look for it. Agave and some pepper along with a natural taste and mouth feel. Reposado is better but not in the app.

I tried to give it a better score because I think somehow 82 seems low. It wasn’t bad , it was good and avg finish at worst. A little too sweet for any expression especially a blanco but aren’t they mostly like that. However, it’s still an 82

Cooked agave forward on the nose. Very happy with the floral notes on the tongue, followed by cooked agave finish.

Tried at Elijah’s.

Nose alcohol citrus spice Taste citrus anise/mint vegetal spice with hot peppery finish

Clean

Had at a sampling at The Outsider. Nice standard tequila at a good price point

Or much aroma, but I am recovering from a bad cold. Tastes hot and peppery.

Scent is a touch mediciny but the taste is solid and the finish is smooth. I would drink again.

Peppery but still pretty smooth

Very good Blanco, the flavor cough me off guard, very veggie like flavors. Feel like I had my serving of veggies for the day.

Very clean, I use this in my mixed drinks and it comes through very earthy with a smooth clean finish.

Vegetal, grassy with citrus and mint. good mix of taste and aromas.

Aroma was basic, could only pick up a sweet agave. Taste however had agave , citrus peel, and very oily mouthfeel and then smooth down the hatch. Very good blanco. I liked it. Also good in cocktails.

Ever heard of the word petrichor? It's used to describe that peculiar aroma that comes from the earth right after it rains after a period of warmth. Even if you didn't know the word that would be the scent this Tequila would remind you the most of. Not quite earthy, not quite wet grass it falls in between those two categories delightfully mixing with the cooked agave center. Black pepper also makes a distinct appearance but it somehow feels understated when compared to the other smells present. This is by far the most tame black pepper I've smelled from a Blanco yet it doesn't feel weak or watered down. Just less in your face. The palate opens up with a wonderful mix of orange peel and cooked agave without either feeling overwhelming. Everything is in a nice balance which segways into the herby, earthy midpalate with style. I should mention here that this is a mix of lowland a and highland agave so the transition from fruitiness to herbal earthiness is to be expected. There's a hint of creamy fruit in the midpalate as well but it's not well defined, it's there more as a coy expression of the agave than a fully realized taste. I've seen a few online reviews mention a hint of mint as well and that seems partly true but I'd describe it as closer to a herbal effervescence than a true mint flavor. Meanwhile the back palate has a rather potent lingering burst of earthiness complemented perfectly by a spicy white pepper kick. An eloquent finish brings this Tequila to a very nice conclusion. I'm reminded of rich soil freshly watered. Tons of complexity for any introspective sipper to tease out though I'll be honest I don't quite know how to describe the various micro-expressions of the finish. What I can say is that the white pepper from the back palate melds perfectly with the earthy finish and there is minimal burn here. This is a fairly sophisticated Tequila offering with lots of character and understated complexity. To me, this is a perfect Blanco for mixing in a highly sophisticated cocktail while still being able to stand up as a sipper worth your time.

Cooked Agave with a slight citrus and vegetal aroma. There is a slight alcohol aroma but not overpowering. Sweetness on the taste and grassy almost minty taste. Slight taste of plastic which coats the mouth. Oily but also creamy. Finish of black pepper, red pepper, slight alcohol leaving a numbing on side of mouth. Medium finish and I get slight bitterness or grassiness.

This tequila is super super smooth for a blanco! I love sipping this can’t wait for the anejo to be release.
