Don Sergio Blanco

An elegant, Agave Spirit by NOM 1438. It has an aromatic birth with notes of agave, fruits, flowers, vegetables, herbs & spice; while the palate adds banana; that led to a complex death of medium length with a touch of pepper.

Agave syrup, tobbaco, tomatoes, peppers, onions, oily, waffles, butter, salt, caramel, olive oil, whipped cream.

Neat. Nose is lots of cooked agave, fruity as in pear or plum, citrus zest, slightly vegetal, and a little brine/minerals. Taste is fruity agave sweet, well balanced with a little green olive, orange zest, some herbal notes. Finish is some slight sweetness fading leaving the green olive and zest. Smooth with a moderately light mouthfeel. Overall, a pretty decent tequila for the price. If you enjoy a traditional martini with an olive, this shares a lot of the flavors.

Sharply aromatic nose; floral and strong agave aroma. More on the citrus and tropical fruit end of the scale than vegetal/peppery. Clean light finish with more agave hitting. You could drink it straight, but I put it in my prickly pear margarita and it’s perfect. Mid-price Total Wine house brand.
