This blanco left me confused. Right off the bat, the nose was off-putting having an overwhelming note of sex wax, as if I walked into a Ron Jon’s surf shop. I also found coconut, suntan lotion, an intense cheesy funk, and an artificial fruit I couldn’t put my finger on somewhere between a dragonfruit & a strawberry. The palate was admittedly better, but it still tasted altered to fit a certain “tropical” cheesy profile. The finish left my palate with a bitter sugar cookie note that I did not like. The gaudy bottle is a bit of an eye sore too. Padre Azul clearly took inspiration from the early 2000’s fashion trends of Affliction with a hefty skull top to boot.

This is an example of overly sweet tequila with no flavor profile of agave. It’s a thick additive laden tequila with bites of caramel, butterscotch, and maple syrup quality. Padre Azul reposado does not showcase the agave unfortunately.

Full of additives. Taste like it came out of a candy store. I will say it tastes better then it smells….but it’s a very low standard. This would be my comparison to good tequilas.

One of the worst brands I've ever tasted. Artificial sugar bomb. Just plain horrible! Avoid!

Aroma very weak and faint but pull out some light agave but you can almost smell sugar and a rubbery tire store smell. Flavor of sweetness up front, some anise and artificial vanilla flavoring. Something I might put on a flask and drink with a hunting buddy but not an everyday sipper nor would ever make it to my shelf.
