Bottle: L 060 24 E046, 289, 13:50, 3 Appearance: Clear Nose: Faint cooked agave, alcohol, somewhat herbaceous, old mint, medicinal, light citrus, dry earth, hay, musty, and stale corn…not the worst, but a bit off Palate: Alcohol, sour citrus, black pepper, faint cooked agave, vegetal, wet grass, metallic, artificial sweetener, fake fruit, pear, and corn syrup…less enjoyable than the nose Finish: Acetone, cinnamon, burnt black pepper, and vegetal…short duration with thick and oily mouthfeel Overall: This wasn’t nearly as bad as I imagined it would be. That being said, it wasn’t what I consider good, either. It’s harsh and sour like citrus juice that’s been left in a stainless steel tumbler for several days along with some nail polish remover that was poured in. There are so many better options for the same price (or less) that I can’t fathom a reason for ever imbibing this willingly again.

This is why some dont like tequila right here. Horrid smell of acetone and fake sugars. Actually smells worse than it tastes. Lots of sweetness and fake sugar and vanilla. No thanks.

Is it the worst tequila I’ve tried? No, but it’s not good either. Weird medicinal aroma and taste. Black pepper and alcohol.

The aroma had cooked agave, citrus and a medicinal quality. Flavor had black pepper, cooked agave, citrus and that medicinal hint again. Not much of a finish.

Some agave/pepper is here, but so is a lingering acetone. Poor finish, bitter & harsh.

I always want to give every tequila a fair shot… Even from Casa Cuervo. I am pleasantly surprised it’s not terrible! Aroma has alcohol, agave, and some light minerality. The taste is quite a bit sweeter than the aroma profile. It definitely has agave and pepper, and maybe even some red hot candies on the backend. The finish leaves your mouth coated with a sweet syrup, which is always suspicious. But again,overall OK.

Nose: Cinnamon and mint, the aroma of sugar beginning to caramelize and tinny canned pears. Flavor: Slightly oily, nondescript sweetness with tell tale bitterness. Somewhat peppery with quasi cinnamon flavoring.

This one surprised me because I expected to rate it much lower than I did. Green agave, straw, pepper, herbal and cinnamon notes in the aroma. Flavor is somewhat consistent, with pepper dominant.

Aroma: chemical and astringent. A little pineapple and herbal. Taste: the aroma is reflected in the flavor, quite chemical, a little pineapple, astringent and herbal. Better than expected.

A step up from Cuervo Especial, says 100% agave. The cooking method is better, and the copper pot still is an improvement. cheap mixer.

This tequila gets a bad rap. I bet it has more to do with price and diffusion. While not a go-to supper it’s an excellent option for cocktails.

Lote L02622, bottled on 21-06-2022. 38% abv. 226 años. Aroma: briny and first, after 15 minutes becomes a tad sweet cooked agave, light black pepper, light citrus, but notes are pretty light. Palate: slightly sweet cooked agave, minty, very light black pepper spiciness. Finish is short to medium, light sweet cooked agave and black pepper notes dissipate rather quickly. I didn’t smell nor taste any additives.

aroma: agave, pepper and alcohol notes taste: medicinal, hints of agave and anise without harshness. finish: medicinal notes overpowering all the flavor. Definitely an altered tequila strictly made for quantity and not quality. ok tequila for mixed drinks. your better off with tres agaves blanco.

Hard to beat for the price. So far my favorite blanco in cocktails. Earthy, even faint smoke and cooked agave. Of course, not a sipper. Cuervo recommend to store it in the freezer.

Aromas and flavour heavy of agave Peppery/spice Salt Some citrus Not the smoothest finish

Earthy nose is balanced by not striking with alcohol burn but is not drinkable on its own. Debating keeping for pure cheap mixer or pouring down the sink.

Inconsistent? I have had two different bottles. The first was decent and I would’ve bought it again so I did. The second bottle was nasty and really minty. I will give it a long time before I buy it again, but I will give it one more chance someday.
