Probably the best tequila I’ve had in it’s price range. It has become my go-to blanco. Previously it was espolon but given that I can typically get a liter for about $20 before tax at my local liquor store this is an easy choice. Similar in quality to espolon but a little fruitier and more floral in taste compared to espolon. It is very similar to Azteca Azul but a little better in my opinion.

Neat. Nose is great with lots of cooked agave, minerals/earth, vegetal with grass and herbs, and a little floral and citrus. Taste starts with rich and fruity agave, peppercorns, floral vanilla, balanced with some soft minerals, brine, and a hint of butter. Finish is sweet and herbal Delicious and unique. A good value even with my inflated 1L/local gas station markup
A very balanced blanco tequila. You still get the agave and floral notes, but they arent overwhelming. Theres a little bit of sweetness and pepper that really rounds it all out. Something you could sip on if need be but probably best as a mixer.
lemon scent, peppery notes later on, could sit on a finger’s worth sipping for ages and pick up new things every time.
Herbaceous and sweet. Long slow burn. Top Tier cocktail mixer. Probably the best “cheap” tequila I’ve had.
Best blanco I've had, would've bet it was a reposado from the flavor.
