Spicy I know this is out of line with what Distiller says, but this is really spicy to me. When I drink this I get a barrel like spice. The burn from drinking this is similar to the burn from drinking a spicy whiskey, perhaps I'm conflating senses here, but this seems spicy. I actually can't taste the agave that well in this, I taste more of the earthy aspect of it. This was a really cheap tequila, so its almost always worth it. The only thing is that I get more of the earthy notes from the agave than the vegetal ones, and that takes a bit of an adjustment.20.0 USD per Bottle

Earthy, Herbal and Fruity: This tequila tastes and smells deeply earthy at first. It tastes like the agave plant and the ground it came from, its super deep and dark, I don't really enjoy it. On the second sip, that goes away, and all I can taste is the aftertaste I get from orange juice. I don't like the clash of those two flavors, at first I taste the earthy darkness, but then I get overtaken by that orange juice taste, very weird mix. This tequila is okay for the price, its got some unique stuff going on. In a margarita it tastes like I mixed orange juice in there because of that tates I was talking about earlier25.0 USD per Bottle

Don Julio Blanco Tequila
Tequila Blanco — Los Altos, Jalisco, Mexico
Reviewed May 6, 2021 (edited May 10, 2021)Sweet, Spicy and Citrus The primary component upfront is a sweetness, its light and bright. Then shortly after I get a spiciness, sort of like the kind you get from rye. I then taste a citrus orange juice/ lemon like note, but this only appears sometimes, when complimented by something else I'm eating or drinking. Finally, I taste the agave all throughout, it isn't overpowering, it is there and blends well. This is good. Like I said in my prior review, when mixed in a margarita the spiciness stands out43.0 USD per Bottle -
Tom's Town Pendergast's Royal Gold Bourbon
Bourbon — Tennessee (bottled in Missouri), USA
Reviewed April 29, 2021Light wood and Bitter it tastes very light, but you actually get hit with a bitter and astringent note as well. It was okay, but I don't think I would go back -
Knob Creek 9 Year Single Barrel Reserve
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

Vanilla and Sweet This whiskey tastes like vanilla, and caramel. There are no harsh notes and is very light. This isn't very intense in flavor and has few notes, but if you enjoy those notes, you will enjoy this. For the money this probably isn't worth it as it isn't that interesting, I feel as though you could get the exact same thing from Old Grandad.39.0 USD per Bottle
