Jose Cuervo Especial Gold Tequila

Definitely better than cheaper tequillas, but still you can buy better ones.

Nose - mint, pepper, vegetal notes, clay, orange zest, vanilla, old wood, light cooked agave, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - sweet mint, vanilla, powdered sugar, citrus zest, lime, grassiness, ginger, clove, subtle agave, light wood notes, moderate alcohol bite, finishing fast with vegetal, mint, and vanilla flavors. I’m torn on whether I like this more or less than the Silver offering. Both are not great. This one is less prickly (in a good way) and sweeter, but the agave notes are almost completely absent. I’m not gonna think too hard on this one. I’ll score them both the same.
