El Rey is a smooth, very drinkable tequila from the legendary distillery, Cascahuin. It is done the right way, cooked in a horno for 72 hours and using traditional methods of distilling and fermentation. The nose is sweet, but not artificial, as is the flavor. Its herbaceous and vegetal with notes of black pepper, anise, and cut green grass, with a finish of olive brine. It has a bit of a “bite,” in a good way, that reminds you are drinking a pure juice without additives.

The blanco is the standout, followed by the anejo. The blanco is real nice, offering a sweet, spicy, smoky and peppery aroma with an herbal and anise presence. For the price, this is a solid inexpensive light and tasty tequila, made at an established distillery.

Bright agave/mineral nose. Not terribly complex but nice cooked agave, minerals, grass with a somewhat short finish, moderate heat. Sipper?? Perhaps but I’ll be trying this in my next Margarita!

Nose is agave first, a tad of sweetness, followed by a mild vegetal note. Flavor is a bit timid to me, it needs more of a robust entrance and some pepper perhaps. I wonder what this is like right from the still. Finish hangs around but does so ever so slightly. Overall lacking complexity, a bit watery, but respectable.

Tequila El Rey - Light and Easy... Good for Everyone

Tequila El Rey is light, clean and easy to drink. These are the perfect tequilas for everyone. When an excellent distillery, makes tequila in mainly a traditional way, producing 100% agave tequilas... that's a win.
