Brine nose with some agave. Brine follows through on the palate and finish. Don’t love it

If this were a $65 blanco I could see buying it often. This blanco has a lot to offer in a cocktail for sure as it is big and bold. The nose is full of agave both cooked and raw. I get cinnamon minerals and an ever so slight hint of lactic. On the palate it is first and foremost agave forward. Then it hits you with black pepper and citrus notes. Minerality comes through strong. I getting mint and maybe a bit of anise. The finish lingers but not with its best flavors. I wanted to really like this tequila as it competes with the pretty bottle tequilas in the bar scene. I am afraid that this tequila isn’t the one to win over those lovers of artificially sweet pretty bottles. It’s a decent tequila that is way overpriced for what you get.

Nose: earth / agave raw / vegetal / olive / mineral/ hint of lactic/ hint of apple / lime/ hay / celery / sage / herbal Taste: agave sweet/ vanilla/ pepper/ earth / minerals/ banana/ melon / hint of citrus/ anise / sage/ lactic / hint of bread Finish: very clean bright cool watery mouthfeel that ends on cinnamon and sweet agave/vanilla notes / the lingering final swallow carries a bittersweet ending This blanco uses a tahona to crush and press the agave and that often gives a sweet and unique flavor that is identifiable. I’m not getting that here. There’s something missing here: this tahona made blanco doesn’t have the ‘x factor’ taste that other tahona made expressions have. It’s very flat on the nose, and though there’s a nice sweetness, it just doesn’t ‘pop’ and shake you by the tongue and make you think ‘wow’. It’s good, but it’s good for half the price…not what this bottle is commanding on shelves.

Volcan is a solid brand and I truly believe that the best is yet to come but for me the price hurts this. It’s 40% and 700ml for $130-140. I’m not sure I could name another Tahona brand that has a blanco in that range. It’s solid to drink and made really well but at the high end of the price range.

This is such a well made blanco, very balanced with cooked agave, vanilla, citrus, pepper and a little anise. Beautiful bottle, price is up there but so is this tequila.

Amazing tequila, minerality and sweetness from the Tahona process without harsh notes. I never knew Volcan de mi Tierra could taste like this. Surprising given the fancy bottle. Value is not that great in Mexico vs. other Tahona made tequilas but it’s a great purchase nonetheless, especially as a gift to friends that value presentation.

This is phenomenal Blanco tequila made in the most traditional way possible. I've said it from the beginning and I'll say it again now... it is the best tahona additive free Blanco product ever put into a tall pretty bottle... nothing else in that category compares. Absolutely delicious tequila

Initial aroma of orange peel and earth, followed by cooked agave and earthy anise subtle undertones. Super pleasant aroma, for sure. Flavor has dominant caramelized agave, with some mint and black pepper. Great sweetness that appears during the finish. A big thumbs up on this one.

Aroma is amazing…if you like a very earthy tequila. Starts out with wet cooked agave, minerality, anise, vegetal, olive, and a nice earthiness. On the palate it’s agave forward- cooked agave that sings made with a tahona, peppery at first, minerality, vegetal, anise, some oakiness, and slightly silky. The finish is nice but I wish it lasted longer. Agave lingers with a pepper earthiness and minerality coats the throat…Its nice.

Meximido with friends - pending full review…. Sweet agave!

Nose: sweet roasted agave, citrus, orange peel. taste: definitely a sweeter Blanco. roasted agave coming through strong with white pepper. Great minerality and nice viscosity on it. fantastic finish.

Mexican 38% abv. versión, lote: L191B240126, bottled on 14-05-2024, tasted on 8-9-24. Aroma: light cooked agave, light raw agave, hint of brine, hint of green olives, hint of earthiness, minerality, light acidity, light sourness, after 20 minutes in the glass the cooked agave note becomes a tad sweet but the briny note also becomes slightly more noticeable. Palate: confirms aromas perceived, good sweet sour and acidic balance, hint of black pepper spiciness. A hint of citrus. Finish is medium to medium long, light cooked agave, light raw agave, light acidity with light pepper spiciness and a briny sensation persists.

Very Average Tequila for the price. Aroma: Cooked Agave, Citrus, Mint, Herbal, Mineral, Earthy Taste: Cooked Agave, Minerals, Light Pepper, Citrus, Mint, and a faint Anise flavor

Beautiful Bottle- would look good in your collection and make a good gift.

Overall I love the taste and aroma. A little heat considering it is only a 40% The price is a little high and that is to be expected from LVMH with that classy bottle.

Strong, spicy, alcohol forward with agave finish.

It is a luxurious blanco with a luxurious price.

it's okay. There's better out there especially for the price.

Will need to revisit… this was my score from trying a sample a few weeks ago.

This is without a doubt one of the best blanco tequilas I’ve ever had. The nose is rich roasted agave with bright grassy notes. The palate is equally impressive with decadent texture that envelopes your mouth. It finishes long with beautiful notes of slate, citrus peel, yeasted bread and white pepper. Clearly a labor of love and dedication, I can’t wait to get more!

Unique combination of smoothness & complexity

Sweet agave with citrus notes. Makes a delicious sipper. Price cost drops it a couple of points. Beautiful bottle.
