Código 1530 Blanco Tequila

Sweeter than I was expecting. Nice flavor

Floral and citrus

Nose - white and black pepper, tomato, stewed agave, strong minerality, herbal and vegetal notes, clove, nutmeg, vanilla, yeast, subtle nuttiness, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - sweet cooked agave, rich vanilla, caramel, pepper, savory vegetal earthiness, nutmeg, mild citrus notes, yeast, clove, sugar syrup, mild to moderate alcohol bite, finishing medium length with syrupy vanilla, sweet cooked agave, and baking spice flavors. This is an interesting one. For a supposedly additive free tequila, I picked up on strong vanilla and caramel notes that I wouldn’t expect to be present in a blanco. On the nose, I get a tomato vibe similar to Siete Leguas, but not quite as acidic and bile like. The mouthfeel is much thicker than most tequilas I’ve tried as well. Overall, this is quite nice. Probably one step above Olmeca Altos and about on par with Siete Leguas for me. The price is slightly high for what you get, but not outrageous.

On ice. Had several. Very smooth. Better than neat.
