Tried this my first time as a TMM blind. I tried this again on an American Airline flight. This is an earthy tequila with a touch of funk. I personally find it enjoyable.
• Visual: Good viscosity, very slow cascade. Clear w/ clear thick edge. • Initial Nasal Impact: Warming. • Aroma: Sweet funk, mineral, river rock, cooked agave, petrichor, melon husky. • Mouthfeel: Buttery w/ sufficient alcohol. • Flavor: Cooked agave, mineral, melon husk, light licorice, pepper. • Finish: Med - long w/ cooked agave then the melon husk takes over. Licorice on the retro nasal.
TMM Blind Tasting: Smells oddly sweet hint of vanilla soap, possible some chemicals. Slight hint of honey, a little mint, hint of cola, and a little burnt rubber makes me think possible additives, and/or diffuser. Palate- very "smooth" mouthfeel. Likely glycerin. Lots of anise, white pepper, a little honey. Decent amount of heat. Medium length finish. Not pleasant. Decent amount of herbs and sweetness. Seems artificial. Points for value.
The aroma is pungent, no agave present. The flavor is not as offensive, but not flavorful. The finish is bitter, with a solvent defect.
unpleasant aroma even after being open for 15+ minutes. flavor not as bad, hence the word bad. average finish.
TMM Blind 2025–Dusty, wet earth, and tart aroma. Flavors include red grapes and jalapeño. Thin mouth with a short initial finish that finds a way to linger on the lips. Points for value.
Starting June 1, the airline will begin offering tequila on select flights as an inflight alcoholic beverage option for eligible customers.

TMM BLIND Nose: earthy mushrooms, rustic, umami, lemongrass with a hint of honey Taste: The mushroom earthiness carries over to the taste. The taste is sweeter than the nose and some white and black pepper appear. Overall: This might be a like it or leave it profile. The palate is more pleasant than the nose. This might go well with food and cooking with it.
