This is a strong contender for an everyday budget cocktail tequila. Can I sip it? Yes, but this like the repo are best in cocktails. Great quality at a price that’s hard to beat.

Really good nose, smells clean with some cooked agave sweetness with vegetal hints. Awesome palate of cooked agave, a hint of funk/brine. Clean peppery finish. Gets a ton of points for an exceptional value!

Amazing value, over delivers. Great for cocktails and sipping. Great agave forward notes. Winner

Initial Nasal Impact: Warming. Aroma: Cooked agave, mineral, honeysuckle, tropical fruit, petrichor, brine, cut grass, pepper, sweet potato, wet leaves. Mouthfeel: Buttery with sufficient alcohol. Flavor: Tropical fruit, cooked agave, peppermint, brine, earthy, pepper, sweet potato, creamsicle. Finish: Medium with cooked agave, tropical fruit and peppermint. The retro nasal brings out the creamsicle notes which stays around on the finish. Value: Bought at Total Wine for $21.99 (nationwide mid $20's). I give this a 10 on value rating. This blows away most (all?) budget friendly brands. Balanced, complex, harmonious. Roberto Lopez is producing amazing quality tequila at an insane price point.

Aroma/Taste: The nose reveals an intriguing mix of mushroom, sweet cooked agave, cola, a slight cheesy funk, and petrichor. On the palate, it introduces mint, green pepper, black pepper, and a hint of anise, creating a well-balanced and memorable flavor. Finish: The finish is medium in length, with a mint flavor that lingers, which I really enjoy. There's also a warm and sweet aftertaste that stays with you, making the experience even more pleasant. Overall: Tasted blind, this tequila has a soft mouthfeel. It's really well balanced between sweet and spicy flavors. I found it very enjoyable and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good tequila.

Just a sample so maybe I need to sit down with it but not the profile for me. Interesting nose and palate with a tad bitter finish.

Blind TMM tasting. Nice sweet agave with a touch of green on the nose. Some agave and white pepper flavor. A bit thin on the finish. Light and easy classic blanco. Extra points for value.

I get a prevalent, pleasant olive/briny aroma, in addition to cooked agave and pepper. The flavor and finish were not complex and both left me wanting more.

Nose - olive, brine, citrus, pepper, agave (great nose). Flavor - agave, pepper, olive (light) very light finish in comparison to the aroma.

Neutral aroma with a trace of ethanol and zero agave. A bit viscous on entry, this has some bitterness in the mouth and gave me a tongue spike for the finish. Tasted blind in the 10 Blancos Blind. 2nd from the bottom for me of the 10 presented.

This Blanco reminds me of so many great Highland Agave tequilas. Great cooked Agave mineral reality limestone cinnamon vegetable. It really has it all. Great finish hard to be at this price point!

Nose: Cooked Agave, Honey, Fruit, Anise Mint, Cinnamon, vegetal Palate: Minerality, Citrus (rind), limestone, pepper Finish: Mango/ Stone Fruit, Herbs, Minerality, Pepper For the price, this one is spectacular. I got a lot of fruit, vegetal, and cooked agave along with some herbal and fruity notes. This is incredibly (maybe suspiciously) sweet but also full of flavor. I'd like to read up a little but more on production notes.

This one’s hard to beat considering the price tag on it! WOW

Nose: Fresh cooked agave leads the way, accented by a touch of black pepper and a subtle grassy note. It’s bright, clean, and inviting. Palate & Mouthfeel: While the mouthfeel is on the thinner side, it still coats the palate nicely. Sweet agave is front and center, complemented by hits of black pepper, anise, and a refreshing touch of peppermint. It’s a simple profile, but the agave truly shines. Finish: The finish is smooth and easy, with no harsh alcohol burn. A subtle tingle stays on the tongue, carrying a refreshing trace of pep Overall: What a spectacular value Blanco! It’s not overly complex, but sometimes simplicity and quality are exactly what you need.

I had this, several times, at a tasting. The aroma and flavor left a strong impression, with cooked agave taking the lead in both presence and intensity—it truly stood out as the quintessential defining characteristic from start to finish. While other notes made themselves known, they succumb to the cooked agave’s rich and gourmand profile. I found this Blanco to be incredibly palate worthy and look forward to having a full bottle to revisit.

I think most of us can appreciate a good value tequila. I have a couple, Suerte and Puro Potro. These are tequilas that punch above their weight class. Zumbador fits that bill too Nice nose of agave and floral. Minty. On the palate it is also a sweet agave bomb with a bit of black pepper. Finishes off nicely. Makes a good mixer or a sipper. I’d put this third in my budget class

Increased my rating after purchasing a bottle to enjoy. Fantastic blanco that’s hard to beat at this price. Packed with cooked agave sweetness, a touch of cinnamon, and a little anise. I would love a Zumbador high proof.

Zumbador Blanco sample from Bill Durnbaugh Adjusting up for value $25 at OTT Nose: at first i got vegetal citrus pepper. Then the agave and fruit came out. It kept evolving! Anise and mint came forward. It gets more complex as it opens. Palate: agave pepper minerality and anise Finish: peppery that comes back around to sweet agave and more pepper. I'm impressed! need to get a few bottles of this. Note: there seems to be a difference between lotes. I rated lote1 above. lote 3 was mich different. I didnt like lote 3 as much. hoping they'll correct this going forward.

On the nose I get a very traditional cooked agave that’s buttery and has some nice minerality white pepper and brine. There’s hints of alcohol and a faint peppery vegetal note. There’s a classic quality to it. I’m tasting several notes at once. It’s buttery cooked agave, peppers, earthy minerals and a touch of natural agave sweetness. That sweetness carries into a slightly pepper finish that pleasantly lingers. There’s some nice alcohol tingle on the palate. Overall this is a very tasty tequila and it’s coming in at a great price around 25

Aroma is cooked agave, pepper, earth and citrus Flavor is cooked agave, pepper, mint and earth. With a pleasant sweetness. Finish lingers a bit with the sweetness, agave and pepper. This is a one of the best value tequilas I’ve tasted.

11/27/28 Aroma: not much of smell, subtle green agave and grass Flavor: spicy and hot; not my cup of tea, has all the peppers yeah just heavy on the pepper Finish: long and peppery finish some heat and burn Wanted to like this; is ok especially for the price but other than that too much on the spicy

This is an amazing find. I've listened and read reviews, so I ordered it from California....Im in FLA. I order 3 different brands and this was the first that I tasted. OMG!!! I really was amazed at hot delicious this is. On my second taste, 2 days later, THE SAME! I was excited to taste it again and the result was just as pleasing. Nose is great agave and pepper, with citrus, plum. Palate is agave forward, citrus, pepper, clove, and something I can't quite determine. Has a smooth palate, although I don't like using the term smooth. Has a "Crack" that is pleasantly up front with a slight honey finish. Additive Free! Nothing there that I fear. I am a huge fan now and will ALWAYS purchase this. Great sipper...and I'm sure will make a GREAT cocktail.

Easily the best value tequila I’ve had to this point as this was $20 before tax. Plenty of a agave with some vegetal notes on the nose. Palette confirms aroma with also some nice brine. A little chocolate on the finish. Really not harsh at all for a $20 bottle which is very impressive to me. Like the repo it is a little thin on texture but I definitely prefer this to the repo. Conclusion is that the hype is warranted and I have no idea how they can afford to sell this for $20 haha.

Lote L750ZTB0004 Aroma: sweet syrupy cooked agave, a little alcohol tingle, and some slight sage Flavor: quitenjuicy and follows the aroma with sweet cooked agave, sage, and a light minerality that I like Mouthfeel: light body and a little alcohol tingle across the midpalette Finish: lice lingering sweet finish Color: clear An amazing value Blanco! At unser $30, this easily stands up to Blancos twice the price.
