Tasting Panel
This is in fact an attempt to cash in on the mezcal craze, but it’s a nice effort that straddles the smooth creaminess of premium tequila and the smoky earthiness of a rustic mezcal. Spicy, long, and intense at 50.5% ABV.
Tequila Blanco, or ‘white Tequila’, is also known as Tequila Plata, or ‘silver Tequila’. Its clear color is the result of being bottled immediately after distillation instead of being aged in oak barrels like Tequila Reposado or Anejo. Because of their youth and lack of barrel influence, Blanco Tequilas are thought to offer the purest expression of blue agave available, with notes of citrus and pepper. However, they can also be quite forceful and energetic on the palate without the moderating influence of time and wood.
