Bright and lively right from the pour, this blanco bursts with citrus, fresh agave, and a touch of green pepper. The nose is clean yet layered — grapefruit, lime, and a bit of wet stone. On the palate, sweet cooked agave takes center stage with hints of jalapeño, vanilla, and light minerality. It’s medium-bodied with just enough viscosity to coat the tongue without feeling heavy. The finish brings a pop of pepper and subtle cantaloupe sweetness that lingers. Fun, approachable, and full of character — this is an easy sipper that still brings enough complexity to keep tequila lovers interested.

Great nose of agave and grasses. Vegetal, minty, sweet On the palate this is a nice agave forward tequila with vegetal notes, jalapeño, citrus. So easy to sip. The viscosity is medium in the mouthfeel.

Muted agave and ethanol nose. A bit hot, agave and citrus is present on the palate along with some slight herbaceous notes. I can think of other options in this price range I’d prefer, but this is still a well priced, quality made blanco.

Nose: From the start, Caramel butter goodness. Followed by agave, earth, vanilla, and mild olive. Fruit then starts to emerge with grapes, dried cherries, and plum. Palate: Medium mouth feel with good viscosity. Nice and substantial. Agave leads into buttery caramel. Fruit follows. Damn good blanco pour. I will be getting another bottle once I finish my current one. Sweet, somewhat simple, but undeniably good.

3rd night of sipping and this drink has become somewhat palatable, more so than the first two nights. Wafts of scathing ethyl, citrus, caramel, vinegar acetone, cherry and peach. (Initially tasting)Overpowering Ethyl, jalapeño ,honey , agave, brine, medicinal, orange peel, alcohol. The dry down is fruity, citrusy, watery trace and dried fruits which is acceptable but can’t save itself from it’s totality. This drink was not a pleasurable experience for me, just too rough and aggresive with a pronounce ethanol that just dominates the total taste. Not a fan, but I will finish the bottle. 35$ so value is factored in my rating.

Pepper and citrus are the strongest non agave flavors. You can taste the mineral and vegetal notes as well. It's solid especially for the price.

Nose is muted. Don’t really pick up agave on it. Palate isn’t bad, nothing fancy but I kind of like it. Palate and finish are soft, easy to drink

Sweet, citrusy and a great amount of cooked agave. Honestly a very good Blanco for an amazing price.

  • 79 Rating

Nose: cooked agave, fennel, minerality, green bell pepper, citrus, and olive brine Flavor: cooked agave, citrus orange peel, light agave sweetness, black pepper, and has a creamy mouth feel Finish: medium finish, starts out sweet and moves to spicy black pepper

A – Cooked agave and a lactic funk (in a nice way) on the nose, initially. I’m smelling baking spice, hint of vanilla bean, cherry, pine, cola, and fresh cut grass add to the complex aroma. T – Cooked agave, anise, and yeasty goodness are prevalent. Picking up white pepper, savory herbs, limestone. Alcohol hits hard on the flat of the tongue, in mighty good way. F – I’m getting bananas foster flambe in the finish (with the molasses/baking spice combo). The finish on this is unreal. Overall – This is a solid tequila.

Blind tasting- N- white pepper, vegetal, citrus, mint T- cooked agave, sweet ripe fruit, baking spice, earthy notes. I expected more spice from the nose MF- medium F- shorter softer finish w/ just a little lingering heat

Nose on this is unusual for me, with hints of aloe, green pepper, and wet stone. In the mouth, I get cooked agave, pepper, and lemon. The finish is long and spicy, and it’s interesting because the taste of the finish is quite a bit different than the initial flavor. Maybe a little disjointed, but memorable for certain.

Since my video review, I'm changing rating down to an 82. Solid for celebrity tequila though.

Light agave and bell pepper aroma. Picked up some flavors or agave, pepper, and bell pepper. Slight bitter notes hit the side of my tongue. Has some legs but not enough going on. It’s the bell pepper that sticks out for me.

  • 76 Rating

I dont like this one as much. Aroma: agave doesnt come through as much. Kind of bland. Rubbing alcohol Taste: not as complex. Also bland like the nose. I get raw agave and some rubbing alcohol Finish: not as pleasant and sticks with you. Not as much body to this I will steer away from this moving forward. Artenom 1579??? Appreciate additive free but bland
