Aroma: Light agave scent...lots of earth and grassy notes. Initial Taste: Sweet initial taste on the tip of the tongue is quickly overtaken with an earthy and minty flavor. Body: Thin body that is very smooth with only a nice pleasant heat. The grassy and citrus notes are stronger than the agave and they didn't mix all that well on my palate. It's almost a bit bitter with the mint. Finish: A very smooth finish that was very enjoyable (green olive). I wish the flavor was more my taste because even though it's wasn't I can tell that it was well crafted...it just wasn't my cup of tea. I don't like green olives. If you're a fan of El Tesoro Blanco you'd probably really like this tequila. This is a great bottle and comes from a great distillery. I wish that I liked it more, but I just didn't. It's well priced in the $35 range. I have friends and family that will like it so it'll have no problem disappearing. It just won't be into my belly. ]]> Wed, 21 Mar 2012 04:19:20 +0000 <![CDATA[Republic Tequila Plata: ]]> https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=2168 https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=2168 Being originally from Texas the bottle caught my eye so the presentation in my humble opinion was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised by the initial taste very smooth the finish was clean, the body good, I'm not much for products labeled organic, but this tequila changed my mind, the price was reasonable, I am buying this brand again. I did not share this tequila with my friends, they were not worthy. A great tequila for the price. ]]> Sun, 11 Dec 2011 04:32:22 +0000 <![CDATA[Republic Tequila Plata: ]]> https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=1883 https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=1883 My tequila sweet spot is in the reposados, but I decided to expand my horizons by purchasing a bottle of the Republic Tequila Plata. I was pleasantly surprized by the minty sweetness of this blanco and how smoothly it goes down. The Republic blanco has a light and sweet aroma. The flavor has an amazing minty sweetness throughout, with a bite at the finish to remind you that you are sipping a blanco. Very smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this tequila to the experienced due to it's unique flavor, and it would be a good tequila to introduce the uninitiated to sipping as it is overall relatively mild and very smooth. ]]> Thu, 17 Mar 2011 15:27:04 +0000 <![CDATA[Republic Tequila Plata: ]]> https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=1780 https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=1780 Tasted out of a snifter at home from a bottle brought back from Texas by a friend. While I will always have a 'top 5' list. This plata sneaks its way into that list!! It's quite a refreshing taste and stands on its own in an industry full of new brands.. I highly recommend this one to blanco lovers! Aroma: A nice clean nose of agave, grass and 'mint'. Initial Taste: A thin mouth feel, with no bitterness. A sweet entry with an initial taste of sweet agave. Body: A great tasting body of citrus, agave, and slight earth. Finish: A lightly heated finish with that 'minty' agave lingering. I REALLY want to try the rest of their line... ]]> Thu, 06 Jan 2011 03:20:46 +0000 <![CDATA[Republic Tequila Plata: ]]> https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=1627 https://www.tequila.net/tequila-reviews/blancos/discussions/review.html?id=1627 Republic Plata (Lonestar) * Tasted June 2010 * Riedel Tequila Glass Appearance: clear - thick body and slow tears Aroma: spiced agave, lemon, grass Initial Taste: musty agave, mild salt Spirit Body: light and clean, sweet agave and citrus Finish / Aftertaste: heated mouthfeel, medium finish with spice and mint An excellent pure and organic tequila for only $30! ]]> Mon, 02 Aug 2010 00:03:21 +0000
