Tasted in a caballito on June 18, 2008 fast dropping legs sticking to the side of the glass.
Chinaco Reposado
Color: very pale golden brown
Aroma: melted butter
Taste: dark chocolate , light oil mouthfeel that has a burn numbing the entire mouth
Another great Tequila from Chinaco ! This reposado is top notch with a light oily feel in the mouth and a light aged taste with a burn of a blanco. The Chinaco makes it into my top reposado along with at the time of this writing Sol Azul, Casa Noble & Corralejo.

Cazadores Silver
Color: clear
Aroma: agave & citrus
Taste: light on the tongue with the taste of alchohol & vanilla with a burn of a finish
Cazadores is a harsher version of Corzo Silver with much more of an alchohol taste and burn. My blanco favorites are at the time of this writing Chinaco, Siete Leguas, Corralejo and Milagro. For presentation I am not a fan of the screwtop bottle.

Corzo Silver
Color: clear
Aroma: grapefruit
Taste: light to medium on the tongue with the taste of agave & vanilla with a smooth finish
Corzo is a heavier version of Cazadores Silver with less of the alchohol taste and burn. My blanco favorites are at the time of this writing Chinaco, Siete Leguas, Corralejo and Milagro. I do like the very modern shaped sharp lined bottle.

Tasted in cocktail on June 3 and then neat in a caballito on Jun 5, 2008.
AsomBroso El Platino Silver
Color: clear & silver
Aroma: agave & burnt sugar
Taste: light & creamy on the tongue with the taste of agave & black licorice
This is a very interesting blanco that tastes like a cross between Tequila & Ouzo. AsomBroso El Platino Silver is a great blanco neat, though with its licorice hints it adds a little strangeness to cocktails. AsomBroso jumps into my favorite blancos when it is enjoyed neat or on the rocks. Other favorites include at the time of this writing Chinaco, Siete Leguas, Corralejo and Milagro.
Any bottle shaped this phallic deserves 100 !

Siete Leguas Blanco
Color: clear
Aroma: grass & agave
Taste: light on the tongue with the taste of earth and faint pepper finishing very smooth
This is a blanco that has moved into my top five. It is too bad I have to travel out of state to purchase. Chinaco, Siete Leguas, Corralejo and Milagro are my current top blanco picks as of the writing of this review
