San Matias Legado Blanco

The nose is richer with more chocolate than regular San Matias. It has a really weirdly oily smell going on with something a bit rancid, but not sulfuric - it's like pureed cauliflower. The cauliflower tastes like Clan MacGregor and it isn't good, though it vaguely works a bit in a tequila. The palate is quite viscous with a rich sort of malty presence that has gross bread for sure, but in a rich dignified way that is kind of enjoyable. It's sweet but enjoyable. The flavor can be a bit mineral and watery, but it doesn't taste light. The richness and oiliness seem like good base flavors for something, but they're a way from a complete profile. It's a bit odd and mainly has its richness and viscosity going for it. Lunazul has more going on in its flavor profile, so I kind of prefer it. This isn't substantially worse though. The weird tip that salvages this tequila is that it goes great in eggnog!

Neat. Aroma is bright and clean. Agave, slight herbal, citrus, slight ethanol. Taste is sugar cane and agave sweet, citrus, green herbs, slight anise. After airing out/a few sips, some fruit and mint notes come out. Drying finish builds up over time.. Herbal, saccharine, some alcohol heat Overall a thinnish mouthfeel, a little alcohol heat, Pleasant and no off-putting flavors, but not very complex. Great value. If you're looking a blanco make some mixed drinks for a party, this is great. Around me the same price for a 750ml for Altos, I might lean to Altos as I slight prefer it as a sipper, but for 1.75l, this is 15 bucks cheaper and is a no brainer steal.
