This is what I want all Blanco’s to taste like, tons of agave from start to finish. Long and rich finish that keeps giving, this tequila is creamy in texture, really lovely.
Wet grass, citrus, and agave forward on the nose. Pear, and agave heat on the taste. Smooth, but hot Long agave finish. Great taste
Siembea Valles Blanco is an excellent example of blanco tequila done right. Using 7 year old agave from the Lowlands this tequila has a great nose, taste and finish. The green agave and mineral notes punch through while I detect a floral taste along with citrus and a hint of pepper. The finish is smooth and short. This tequila pairs well with more tequila!
agave on the nose. pepper and citrus follow. spicy, but not overwhelming. herbal and sweet on the tongue with just the slightest amount of smoky leather at the end. oyamel, dc served in riedel tequila glass $13
Arome: cooked agave, earth, flowers, fruit and spearmint. Flavor: fruit, agave, honey, full body and complex. Finish: long with light spice mixed with some sweetness and agave finish.
From a blind tasting. Baked agave on the nose and loads of citrus in the mouth. Finish fades a little bit quickly but overall very enjoyable.
Rated blind after aeration. Yikes! Powerful hit of antiseptic off the top of the glass! This dissipated after opening up but remained present throughout. Agave notes could be detected later. Thick and chewy with a big pepper explosion right away. There are some agave/herbal/citrus flavors that can be noted, but there is a large mineral/metallic component that became less pronounced toward the bottom of the glass. The finish feels mild and short after the aggressive nose, pepper effect, and flavors, but a nice pepper tingle did linger. This has a lot of machismo—bold, brash and kind of reckless. To be consumed quickly in lively company (preferably after it has had plenty of time to open up). This behaves like an overproof with its big differences between the top and bottom of the glass. Not necessarily overpriced for the market, but there are many many better options out there at this price and below. The antiseptic nose and metallic notes dragged the tasting scores down, creating knock on effects for value/buy/recommend.
On the nose lost of citrus, pepper and cooked agave with some hints of raw agave as well. A fun peppery burn on the lips and front of the palate, quite vegetal with note of citrus, pepper and some light hints of anise. A long agave finish. Truly a delicious blanco with a remarkable complexity, likely brought in by the bagasse fermentation. Definitely one of my favorite currently produced tequilas. I can't wait to see how it ages!
This is a very solid blanco. Highly recommended.
I’ve been sitting in this entire line of tequila for a few years, finally opening after paying attention to their NOM. I’m a big fanof Cascahuin, so I’m pretty excited to compare the brands. Nose is nice, light alcohol burn, slight pepper, oily agave. Warm across the palate, pronounced celery with slight honey & vanilla. Delicious across the backend! Cannot recall what I paid, but it’s got to be cheaper than Cascahuin Blancos, overall an excellent bottle. Just checked the price on wine-searcher.com, at less than $50 USD, this is a great deal!!!
Fantastic Blanco. The aroma is absolutely amazing, and the taste follows up on the nose’s lead. I could sit and smell an empty glass of this for hours. It’s the Ying to the Azul’s Yang. Strong agave in both, but with the Valles it’s pepper up front as opposed to the citrus and sweet of the Azul. There is just the perfect amount of minerality here; not overwhelming, but rather complementary. Both the Valles and Azul have a wonderfully creamy mouthfeel. The Siembra Valles Reposado is probably my favorite tequila, so it’s not surprising that it comes from such a wonderful Blanco.
I think this sips well and it’s also a helluva floater. Their collaboration with Cascahuin is what inspired me to make this purchase. Would buy again but next will compare to the Azul from same producer.
Sweet Peppery, earthy, hot
Interesting nose because its a fine balance of sweet agave and vegetal root with a tad of clay to me. Flavor: oily and sweet and balanced well...I like how this blanco doesn’t let the pepper overpower. Finish has endurance, is also balanced, and then decides to slow fade. Very nice.
The best tequila I have had so far, I’m not very experienced so this is coming from somewhat of a beginner. But this was the best aroma, taste and finish I’ve had. Very pricey as it’s $49.99, but I would buy again because it’s been my favorite. Highly recommended.
excellent blanco
Liquorice flavour Sweet and honey
Bright and citrusy throughout. Aroma flavour and all.
Light and bright nose with kaffir lime and an undertone of soft green herbs. Agave sugar both raw and cooked is the main flavour component on the palette. Some heat on the finish which falls into agave sweetness to coat.
Didn’t love the nose but the finish was amazing.
Really love this, grassy, boozy, raw agave. Super delicious!!!!
Orange peel & light honey entry with a touch of pepper on the short finish. Good sipper but I have to try this in a Cadillac Margarita.
Very floral, almost like Japanese sake
Floral , Agave and citrus Very nice balance , smooth and legs

Had potential but tasted too rubbery from rubber cork and short dry finish...
