Works fine as a smooth mixer. I don't recommend it as a sipper if you are looking for a lot of agave flavor because it is, as stated, a mixto, part agave and part sugar cane. Nevertheless, it is smooth and very affordable, but not intense flavor. Would make an easy intro to tequila newbies.
About this bottle
Sauza Gold is an unaged mixto tequila produced using 51% agave and 49% sugar-cane spirit distillate. Caramel coloring is added to give the gold color. This is really designed to be hidden behind strong mixers or consumed quickly in shots.

Not buying again. Better packaging but the product is from the bottom shelf. There’s worse out there, but great stuff for the same price. Grab lunazul and you are good to go.
There’s agave in the nose. But it’s not great to drink. Shoot it or mix it. It’s a little harsh. Plastic on the finish.
If you're buying this, just be aware it's essentially cuervo gold. This ruined me on tequila for a long time.
Over-sweet roasted agave overpowered by a huge hit of pepper and raw herbal spice. $30 in Ontario.
Not the smoothest, a little sharp going down. Good for mixing and margaritas
