Pepe Zevada Blanco Tequila

Pepe Zevada Blanco Tequila - The delicate smoothness and exquisite bouquet of Pepe Zevada “Z” Blanco evokes the authentic aromas of the agave from where the spirit is distilled.  It is a testimony of a precise fermentation and distillation, giving the true original taste of premium agave.

Jose “Pepe” Zevada embodies the word tradition.  Born of European parentage, Pepe was raised by the values that your “word and a handshake” meant a promise would be kept.  He was taught that the dinner table was sacred because that is where families came together to celebrate life’s events.  Pepe has been in the liquor business for over 30 years, and as a tequila expert, his name on the bottle represents his personal commitment that this product contains all the characteristics an excellent tequila should possess. 
 
Through the combination of tradition and high technology, this has placed Pepe Zevada among the leading distillers in Mexico.  Pepe Zevada “Z” Tequila is produced with extensive care to detail, from the selection of 7 to 9 year old agave plants, the careful choice of cultivated yeasts through the unique short column distillation process, managed by a staff with over 30 years distillation experience. A single sip reveals the smooth uncompromising taste.

Pepe Zevada “Z” Tequila is produced from 100% natural ingredients, with no additives to modify or change its exceptional quality or authentic taste.  This is insured through using dimineralized water so the minerals do not contaminate the spirit.

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!
