El Agave Tequila Artesanal Blanco

Tasted 07/25/14 from a Riedel Tequila Glass.
Purchased on sale at BevMo for $22.99

Color-less and crystal clear
Aroma: Light, clean agave nose with subtle green grassy notes characteristic of a highland tequila.
Initial Taste: Clean, crisp, and smooth sweet agave peppery taste with faint floral notes.
Body: Medium-light body with light tears on glass. Light buttery mouth feel.
Finish: A short to medium long peppery agave finish.

This is a good “value” tequila at the sale price. It has a smooth, predominantly agave flavor that would make a nice mixer or an OK sipper. It seemed to lack other flavors, e.g. citrus or floral notes to compliment the peppery spice of the agave.

El Agave blanco is a very nice tequila. Although, it doesnt break itnto my top 5, I would say it very well may be in my top 10. Id have to say a very nice sipper, no mixing, please!

Aroma: Very clear vanilla and citrus aroma.
Initial Taste: It has an oily mouth feel to it, with a creamy vanilla taste when put on tip of my tongue.
Body: Very intense agave followed by notes of pepper and spice.
FInish: A creamy finish of short to medium duration. No bitterness.

I give this blanco a solid B+. And for the price, you cant go wrong.
