Caballito Cerrero Chato Blanco 46

88 SCORE

“Amazing nose, with lots of olive, and brine. Lots of cooked agave and pepper, with a long heated finish. This is good, but not good as the Azul. It has a very faint mezcal taste to it.”

“Just not a whole lot going on here. Not much agave and very watered down. A small peppery finish. This is incredibly overpriced as well. ”

Montagave Blanco 'Héritage'

88 SCORE

“Lots of agave in this one, but you can find a faint wine taste in this. The wine influence comes through mainly in the finish. Priced on the higher side, this is a very good tequila.”

El Caballito Cerrero Blanco (46%)

93 SCORE

“Boasts a very olive, flora, and white wine aroma. Almost smells like a french apple/pomme cider. The taste is extremely smooth and well balanced. The finish is again, like a fine white wine, with a hint of smoke, which I have never experienced in tequila before. Great agave flavor which is not overpowering. This is truly a tequila to savor. ”

Wild Common Tequila Reposado

92 SCORE

“Great floral and fruit smells, with zero ethanol smell. Very faint char aroma as well from the barrel. The taste is the perfect amount of sweetness and agave, with a mild pepper finish. This is a personal favorite of mine. ”

Fuenteseca Cosecha 2018 - "Las Antenas"

93 SCORE

“As close as to perfection as it gets. There is a great balance of sweetness, heat, and agave. I’m getting hints of olive, fresh fruit, and brine. Obviously the agave shines through. This is a pricy bottle at $125 in Chicagoland, but it’s worth every cent. One of the best blancos I’ve ever had.”

Mijenta Tequila Reposado

“I feel everything is very average and muted. I was hoping for a more agave and a longer finish. Not bad by any means but was hoping for more. Above average, but not too exciting.”
