Awesome 1123 notes! Butter cream, agave, some fruitiness, just all around balanced brightness they i always love, an easy buy for me
On the nose a lot of agave and citrus Flavor great cooked agave a lot of mineral definitely can tell this is from NOM 1123 The finish has a hint of agave a lot of min of mineral taste and its very spicy the finish is long. To me this is a fantastic separate a great price
Light and flighty. … this a nice sipper with a nose of light agave and mineral freshness On the pallet it’s similar agave, minerals, citrus and lime.
Comparing this against the regular Cascahuin plata, 48, wild common, and legado. This has got it all and only falls a little short on flavor compared to the HP. The price is right, I’m on the lookout for more!
Earthy, mineral, citrus aroma. Flavors of brine, minerals, lime—but it’s fairly one dimensional. Nice legs but thin mouthfeel with a warm yet fairly short finish. Low end of 1123 pricing, but also overall experience. Probably a cocktail tequila for me.
Very interesting citrus component to the flavor profile that I like. Healthy amount of ethanol carrying several other Cascahuin elements from the water and the process. This is worth exploring more. Thanks Tom for the sample
June 11 2024 aguasol blanco samples from Tom H. thanks Tom! nose: I really enjoy the nose on this. it starts with minerality & fruit with hints of cracked pepper and anise. taste: sweet cooked agave, pepper, minerality, grass finish: flavor falls off with lingering pepper on the tongue. other: Legs are nice, not too thick. this would be a good blanco for cocktails, especially with the price under $40
Muted agave nose, palate and boring finish. Points for price at $39 for a budget Blanco.
Bottle: Lot No 347, LOTE 347 130223, 2-B Appearance: Clear Nose: Cooked and raw agave, minerality, wet cement, limestone, brine/salinity, black pepper, citrus, lemon zest, alcohol, herbal, mint, anise, melon, green apple, vegetal, freshly cut grass, and flowers…so much earthiness Palate: Cooked and raw agave, minerality, wet cement, limestone, brine/salinity, herbal, mint, anise, lemongrass, vegetal, celery, bell pepper, freshly cut grass, parsley, melon, black pepper, citrus, and orange…a little more green, but still very earthy Finish: Black pepper, brine/salinity, minerality, celery, and parsley…medium viscosity with a similar duration Overall: This is great representation of Tequila Valley agave and Cascahuin distillation. There’s solid aromas and flavors with a consistent profile from start to finish. There isn’t anything unexpected or a wild amount of complexity, but for the $32 I paid, this is a steal. I will most certainly be buying another bottle and look forward to trying the reposado.
Agave, sweetness, brine and citric on the nose. Bitter notes on the front end, peppery and light agave notes. I enjoy most products from 1123, but this one is not one of my top ones from Cascahuin. Not bad but not their best.
Little brother of Cascahuin Blanco. Solid blanco for cocktails and versatile enough for sipping occasionally
Nose: Cooked agave, citrus, and pepper up front. Faint lime and minerals emerge with time. Light and fresh without being thin. Palate: Sweet agave and black pepper greet you immediately then citrus, light herbs, and a touch of earthiness weave through. Clean and crisp throughout with a smooth rounded mouthfeel. Finish: Clean and refreshing. Agave and a touch of spice linger briefly. Short but pleasant. Overall: Less intense than the Cascahuin house bottles but honest and well made. The Austin roots give it a Texas following and it earns that loyalty. Grab the liter.
Very easy sipper. Nothing offensive. Overall mild personality - great gateway tequila for your non-tequila friends.
Nose: it’s so faint and watered down but you can tell that there are some concentrated notes here. This is going to sound bad but there’s like a different version of those Valley agave Cascahuin notes. It’s like a muted soy, pineapple, dish soap sort of thing. Sounds awful but is quite nice in situ minus how clearly the flavors are muted seeming. Palate: Roasted pineapple, sweet orange pineapple notes. Faded quickly into a cherry note. Very one note on the attack and it’s a very nice attack that slouches back towards the muted flavors the nose has. Finish: sweet orange/pineapple that fades to bitter orange notes. Overall: this tequila is a great representation of the Cascahuin profile in a way that is slightly different and less complex than the Cascahuin blanco, but has notes you won’t get in the Cascahuin blanco like a very intense orange juice/peel note. I’ve heard others say it has a dish soap sort of thing and I’d agree but I like it. No points off for that note because it’s a version of the plastic note Agave gives off. Great mixer. Makes a sick marg. Ok ish sipper.
Lights, with a peppery finish. Close comp to Siete Leguas.
Agave, pepper, citrus, mint
Jalapeño zesty vibes.
It’s a lot more peppery/spicy than I anticipated, it’s different than what I expected from 1123. It leans less into their more classic salinity profile into the mineral and peppery nature. But it still felt very light. There was an almost floral element to the nose that’s very faint, and it feels a bit brighter and lighter than I was expecting. Got a mix of cooked and raw agave, and some vegetal notes as well that really made me think of summer. I think this would be an easy sipper on a hot day (I think that 1123 in general tends to have a thinner, “cool water” mouthfeel compared to many others but not in an unpleasant way), or would be delicious in a tequila soda on a porch or by the pool. I don’t know if this is the sort of thing I’d grab if I was really trying to smell every angle on the glass to pick apart each layer as it opened up, but not every glass I have needs to be that. I do think there’s nothing objectionable about it as a sipper, but it’s opportunity to shine is likely in some cocktails
Lot 687 Nose Clean lemon zest, very fresh and minimalistic Mouth White pepper, some heat, lemon juice, dry, vegetal. Very easy sipper. Lingers short. With a slight mint aftertaste
Aroma: agave, mineral, herbal, grassy Taste: agave, herbal and minty, mineral, sweet melon, slight ethanol bite Great value option, especially considering where it’s made and the bottle design
Bright and clean with an agave-first profile. Cooked agave leads, followed by citrus peel, light pepper, and a subtle herbal note. Fresh and crisp on the palate with good bite and no added sweetness. Straightforward and honest. Overall: A clean, agave-forward blanco that keeps things simple and easy to drink.
Clean blanco
very enjoyable! Great minerality, grassy, vegetal raw agave on the palate. nose is there. may need to let it open first. the finish lingers with agave. I will buy this again.
