Gran Centenario Plata Tequila

Gran Centenario is Mexico's number one tequila. A brand not yet commercially established in the US, Centenario delivers a tequila product a the highest rungs in its competitive price market. Centenario Plata is a unique barrel rested silver tequila which brings slight barrel influences into an agave forward expression. Roasted agave, pepper, smoke, and wheat grass are prominent notes on both the nose and the palate. Nuances of oak and spices are present as well as smooth vanilla nuanced finish.

Tasting neat. Nose is pretty, crisp, sweet agave. Taste is very sweet, then fresh agave and all the fruity herbalness that it is, with a hint of black pepper at the end. There's a lot of nice clean flavors, but the sweetness turns to saccharine, especially in the finish where it's bitterly sweet. It's like the diet version of the perfect (for me) tequila..so close..but ugh

Rich and Agave This spirit smells pungent, like agave and chemical. It tastes dark and rich, like earthy agave mixed with a touch of citrus and wood. Towards the finish the drink gets bitter from the wood. Overall this spirit is quite good, so far, its the best dark and rich tasting plata tequila I've had neat. For $27 it is pretty good value.

This is very nice. I would call it Tequila++. It has all the normal flavors and scents you expect from a good tequila, but it also has a very rounded flavor that sits on top like a nice fluffy blanket. It warms it up and makes it much easier to flat out enjoy with out much thought. This is a good one for sure.

This is bad straight... I have no idea why. I would pick corralejo resposada over this if i had to drink it straight And yes at 28 days it is almost a resposada.. that being said their anejo is probably a much better buy. It does drink ok in a cocktail though but needs alot to overpower the ick

Really very nice. A little hot (I enjoy it)—not as smooth as Corralejo Blanco but it has more dimension/character. Incredible with a lime. Sips nicely but I prefer to shoot. Likely to keep buying this again and again, and probably just became my standby tequila. Solid value at $25.
