Bottled in 2022 Aroma: a lot of alcohol off the bat followed by black pepper, some herbal notes, yeast, chemicals (kind of chlorine), and metallic aromas. Flavor: alcohol and black pepper overwhelm the palate. There’s an earthy note but it’s followed quickly by a metallic flavor. I do get a little sweetness but it’s not enough to make up for the other concerning flavors. Finish: short Overall this isn’t the worst thing I’ve tried and it is confirmed additive free but for $42 at total wine there are so many brands I’d recommend before I got to this one. This to me is the type of bottle I’d recommend in a pinch if there were no other additive free brands.

It’s just alright, pretty alcohol heavy tequila. Not enough agave and tiny hints of sweetness like vanilla

Blanco Incredibly Average! Exactly what the world needs is another $40 bottle of the tequila that is almost as good as some 20 a bottle tequilas..... Aged tequilas in this lineup look as if the have had color added.

Soft nose…. Alcohol up front, some agave. Thin mouthfeel. Not a lot going on. Warmth builds through the finish.

Aroma is wonderful, taste is good but doesn’t deliver on expectations based on the aroma and the finish peters out quicker than I’d like. Agave chewiness, sweet vanilla, alcohol, aspartame, minerality - wet stone/wet asphalt Overall she pleasant - aspartame note feels concerning

Decent flavor. Watery. Probably good as a mixer.

Pleasantly surprised by this one. Very smooth, agave flavor at the front, but it’s quickly replaced with pepper on the backend. Not a bad tequila.

Didn’t really feel that TLC in this tequila , seems rushed and just okay for a mixer but it calls for a premium price point

Slightly cooked agave on the nose, pepper, as well. On the palate I’m getting peppery, a slight sweetness, but a harsh tongue numbing alcohol finish.

Nose: Nice aromas, if a bit subtle. Agave, earthy, mineral, grassy, black pepper. Mouth: Same as "nose", it's overall a subtlely flavorful juice, and has decent heat, good mouth-feel, with a smooth anise finish. Very drinkable as a sipper or mixer.

Vanilla, pepper alcohol, I would recommend this more as mixer than a sipper

Pleasant smell, no burning on the nose. Flavor of mature agave without being overly sweet. Earthy, citrus and vanilla. Very soft on the pallet. Slight heat with pepper on the finish but no burning on the throat whatsoever. Very clean and smooth.

It's an ok tequila. At first got a lot of alcohol and vanilla, after some time I got faint pepper on the back end.
