Oro Azul Blanco. Tasted on 6/16/08 in a snifter.
Oro Azul blanco was a very nice s uprise for me. A very pleasant aroma leading to a very 'refreshing' taste. At $28 a bottle, this ones a real winner in my book.
Aroma: A very creamy, vanilla, pear like aroma.
Initial Taste:I thin mouth tequila. Starting off with a pear like fruity taste.
Body: Followed by strong agave presence with hints of fruits and spice.
Finish: A very soft pleasant fruity, spicy finish of medium duration and no alcohol burn.
As a sidenote: The cork bottle top is REALLY secure and tight. Even after I opened it. Like I said, I really like this blanco. Lots of character!

Milagro blanco tasted out of snifter 6/16/08. Milagro is a decent tequila for what I paid (19 bux). But I think it would go better as a mixer rather than neat. Thats just my opinion.
Aroma: A pleasantly subtle aroma of smoke, pear, and vanilla.
Inital Taste: With an oily mouth feel, and a slightly bitter taste.
Body: Bitter taste turning into a strong agave presence with very spicy tones.
Finish: Of medium duration with alcohol burn.

This was one of the first 100% tequilas I tasted about 6 years ago, I thought it was great then. But after having a more experienced palette, I have a different opinion.
Aroma: I detected intense aroma of spice and hints of caramel and wood.
Initial Taste: Cabo repo has an oily mouth feel with initial taste of caramel and wood.
Body: Mellow agave followed by notes of fruit, caramel and spice.
Finish: No alcohol burn and a spicy woody finish of meduim duration.
Not my favorite repo for sipping. Maybe it would go better as a mixer.

Purchased bottle from Wine and Liquor depot 06/03/08. Tasted in snifter.
Zeveda blanco tequila definitely is a unique tequila. it is a smooth sipper but it does have a slight alcohol burn at the end. I dont love it, but I do like it alot.
Aroma: Very cool aroma! A clean fresh nose of mint and vanilla.
Initial taste: A thin mouth feel of spicy mint that turns into a subtle yet very present agave
Body: The agave presence intensifies at this point, with hints of floral and vanilla.
Finish:Very minty agave finish of medium to long duration with slight alcohol burn.
Presentation: As I've stated before, presentation doesn't mean much to me. However, this bottle is pretty dull. A better presentation could possibly convince someone to pick this bottle up!
Like I said, in my humble opinion, a very unique blanco. Does it break into my top 5 though? No. Would I buy another bottle? At $27 dollars a bottle? You bet I would!

Purchased a bottle on 06/02/08 from Wine and Liquor depot in Van Nuys, Calif.
3 Amigos is a very decent blanco. It has a unique taste and aroma to it, and I definitely will be getting another bottle after Im out! I think its a perfect blanco for new blanco and/or new tequila drinkers.
Aroma: I detected hints of butter and vanilla. Not something I usually detect.
Initial Taste: On the tip of the tongue, it begins buttery and turns to a minty agave.
Body: A very very balanced agave body.
Finish: No alcohol burn at all, with a very spicy finish of medium duration.
