Casa Dragones Blanco use to be on a higher rung for me. As I have grown more attracted to agave forward expressions of agave, Dragones has really distinguished itself as a more earthy slightly bitter tasting tequila with flashes of sweet and minty notes. Overall the aroma is very nice with notes of cooked agave, green apple, pineapple, vanilla, smoke and slight vegetal nuances. On the palate we distinguish a rather strong medicinal and herbaceous component with flashes of cooked agave, mint, and dry earthy and cinnamon characteristics. As this tequila opens up a little more you will begin to notice the more sweet fruity characteristics that leave a nice smooth finish.
