Espolòn Blanco Tequila

Made with 100% pure agave and that’s what you want when drinking tequila. It’s crystal clear w a lot of viscosity. There are obvious agave notes on the nose w some other fruit, like pear or melon or something and oddly, soap. Interesting! Maybe it’s my glass. I get agave on the palate also. It’s creamy w a little welcomed heat. The agave stays with you for a little while and it’s pretty damn smooth. Overall, this is a perfect value priced blanco tequila for your margaritas and palomas. And it’s great chilled for shots too. But, don’t just put the bottle in the freezer and pour it in a glass. I like to shake it up real good with ice and then strain it into a glass so it’s a little deluded and really cold. Yeah! Am I going to sip this? Probably not. For sipping, I get a smoky, aged tequila. But for shots and cocktails that call for blanco tequila, I highly recommend this bottle

Agave more on the nose than on the palate. Harsh for drinking neat but fine for mixing. Was solid for the price when I first got it…but it’s crept up a lot recently.
