This is a newer brand but not from a new brand owner. Chris Cardenas previously produced Anger Management and now he brings us Cardenas Legacy Tequila. They are using a more mature agave but the same quality production process. - The nose is solid and slightly dense. Buttery cooked agave jumps out of the glass and it brings some pleasant citrus notes (grapefruit, lemon & lime) and some elderflower. I’m getting agave, citrus and floral notes. There’s a hint of natural sweetness coming from the cooked agave and a vegetal quality akin to a sliced green pepper. It’s a quality nose. - The first sip gives you a punch of creamy agave and then some nice well rounded white pepper that continues into the finish. It’s a quality first sip. Once I spend some time with it I continue to get the cooked agave that presents itself as dense and creamy. On the mid-palate the buttery agave picks up some nice minerality. The pepper is slightly spicy like a fresh jalapeño. The spice is detectable from beginning to end but it’s not hot, it has a quality vegetal spicy characteristic. This is a solid blanco that sips nicely. It’s not overly complicated but it’s a great pour that can and should be your daily sip. It’s also a nice bang for the buck and it can be purchased online.

Aroma: little bit of alcohol, black pepper, hint of lime. Taste: sweet agave tones upfront, rounding out to a peppery finish. This is a simple sipper, nothing really stood out to me. Not a bad tequila however. This would be a good mixing blanco.
