San Matias Cristal

30 SCORE

“To preface, I loved the SM tahona tequilas, those are phenomenal. This is an atrocity. At $55 dollars a bottle no less. So lucky I was able to taste it without buying. I would rather drink Pinnacle Whipped vodka, I’m sure it would taste the same and be a fraction of the price. Loaded with vanilla additive to the point it smells like a vanilla frappe from Starbucks. Tastes like you left birthday cake in a sub par tequila bottle for a day and poured a glass. And I hope you loved that flavor because it clings to your tongue like it’s paying rent. ”

El Tesoro Tequila Añejo

82 SCORE

“Aroma: lemon zest, woody and fresh with a hint of vegetal agave. Palate: sweet agave, barrel notes of vanilla and wood, smooth and flavorful. Overall, a beautiful añejo, of course.”

El Tesoro Tequila Reposado

84 SCORE

“Smoky on the nose, with an agave sweetness hanging in there too. Very naturally sweet on the tongue. Peppery, with a little strength behind the alcohol but not in a harsh way. Robust and lingering flavor. ”

Fortaleza Reposado

88 SCORE

“Beautiful subtle nose of light wood and agave. Smooth yet flavorful taste of agave and light barrel notes that don’t overpower. Beautiful finish with no sign of a burn. ”

Casa Mexico Blanco

80 SCORE

“Nom 1545: Alcohol and Agave forward nose, herbal sweetness on the tongue. Bright but with an almost baking spice warmth in flavor. For the price ( 26.99 for me) probably one of the best Margarita tequilas I have found. Honestly, blew me away. Highest of the middle shelf.”

Patrón Silver

68 SCORE

“So filtered that the flavor is muted to the point of non-existence. Very faint agave. Smooth, but at the cost of tasting bland. Faint ending alcohol notes. Literally nothing going for it and then you factor in the $50+ Price tag? Highway robbery. ”
