    “This is awesome on the nose and first sip with deep mineral water/agave and baking spices on the palate. The finish is a little short to me, but this is a very solid sipper as a daily or special occasion glass. Top 10 blanco for me as of now. ”

    “This one packs a punch that you just want more of after the first sip. Lots of complex flavors meshed well within, but the finish here is what wins it for me. Strong baked agave and sweet grass finish with a very soft nose for a high proof. Thick mouth feel that coats the glass well. Overall a great HP, be sure to save this one for later in the night and not start off haha!”

    “This is a top 3 blanco for me easily. They do everything right here, and the value is an added bonus. Simple yet deep notes and aromas from this, making it such a pleasant sipper for any occasion. Whether a beginner or expert, you NEED this in your bar. Highly reccomend!”

    “This is a sneaky high proofer that is a great bottle to have on hand. I got strong agave and sweet grass notes on the nose but banana and agave in the palate for sure. Strikes me as more of a unique blanco but would definitely make a great sipper on its own or paired with smoky foods and such. Great pour!”

    “Though it’s not confirmed to be additive free or not, this has all the markings of the very sweet cotton candy/vanilla notes that usually point to a non traditional blanco. This is possibly a good Segway for new drinkers or maybe a cocktail mixer so a night cap/dessert glass but it’s a little too sweet for my liking where the agave is lost in the mix of heavy vanilla sweetness. I have the bottle now for guests but definitely not a weekly sipper by any means. Good value “smooth/sweet” tequila for beginners however.”

    “Wow, what a nice Anejo. This tastes natural and balanced top to bottom. Aromas alone are incredible: dark fruit, nuttiness, slight caramel with baking spices and agave still reigning king under all the aging. The taste is a thicker mouthfeel with peppery bight in the first sip but it turns into buttery, super well rounded easy sipper. I can’t find any complaints on this. It’s complex but easy to dissect at the same time as you sip. This makes a great winter sipper or summer nightcap drink. Highly reccomend. ”

    “This is a Total Wine single barrel; and wow it’s such a great Repo. The finish is shorter than I expected but the flavor and nose upfront still makes this an excellent bottle. Light spices with black pepper and agave in there mixed with a light sweet age in the wood that makes it smooth top to bottom.”

    “Wow, this has such a great flavor profile with lots to unpack. The nose is full of agave but trimmed with baking spices and some light oak. The flavor is not super maple like other Añejos but rather still keeps its agave and herbal notes true while still being very soft and full like an aged tequila. Love this bottle dearly”

    “Very nice clean minerality and agave notes on the nose and they turn into some complex herbal and spice notes on the palate. This is definitely a top 3 blanco for me so far.”
