Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado, NOM 1122. I tasted this spirit at a pre-Cinco de Mayo party in a small fluted Champagne glass. The color had a pale, light amber/yellow color. The nose was earthy alcohol & nothing else. I detected first a very slight oak & a pronounced, unattractive alcohol taste. This medium body tequila had hints of spicy cinnamon which came out in the body, much like I've experienced in a blanco. The moderately long finish was numbing & ended with a strong presence of alcohol. Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado was rather harsh which I compared to a mixto, lacking any sweetness & overall taste representative of a 100% agave tequila. I think "Gold" or "Especial" is more appropriate here! C-/C.

Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado NOM 1104 Tasted 3/9/07. With a pale yellow color, Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado has an intense aroma of earth. Moderate aromas consist of floral, fruit, and smoke. The tequila has a bitterness to it and a sweet aftertaste. Initial flavors are intense earth and floral. There are also moderate agave, fruit, and spicy flavors. A hot, numbing alcohol intensity and a medium duration of flavor bring this tequila to an end. This tequila received the rating of B.
