Cimarrón Blanco Tequila

Tequila Blanco — Los Altos, Jalisco, Mexico

Reviewed June 27, 2023
3.75
3.75 out of 5 stars
Rating: 17/23 N: Bold, oily, savory. A funky cheese flavor reminiscent of what La Luna Cupreata has. Hints of lime. Quite challenging, but not bad. P: Whoa! This is really good! It's sweet, but funky and interesting and mellow. There are some funky cheese flavors, but they're much more subdued than the nose suggested. A bit of prickly spice way in the back. The sweetness is hard to place beyond just agave. A bit of bitter lime peel. Maybe very faint notes of yellow peach? There's a lot of interesting character going on here that manages to be both interesting and decadent. F: Lingering oiliness with that savory cheese and hints of bitter cooked lime peel. Lingering notes of agave stand out too. - Conclusion - This is really good! It's a shockingly good cheap tequila. We're talking like an alternative to Fortaleza. It's not on that level, but there's some great funkiness that really blends together well. It's great for sipping and for mixing. I'm thinking it's most likely around a 16, but it could be higher. Possibly a 15, but that seems low. Side by side, this is less rich than Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength (17/23), but it's sweeter with more distinct flavors and funkiness. It's kind of between that and La Luna Cupreata (16/23). This is sweeter though. Overall, this is on the sweet side and it's super smooth, with plenty of decadent complexity. I'm inclined to go with a 17 now. Honestly, an 18 is even in the picture. What a find!
