True to my name, I've exclusively reviewed whiskies up until this point. Now is time for my first foray into another spirit. For that I've chosen this Don Julio Blanco. Don't expect much, I've very green in my tequila career. Nose: Citrus bomb. Lemon, lime, grapefruit, and maybe even a tad bit of pineapple. A pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper. Beyond that, I really just get that classic agave and floral tequila nose. Quite good. Palate: More of that citrus. Lemon, lime, grapefruit. In addition to the fruit, I'm getting some green vegetable notes. Here it's green pepper and cucumber. More of that salt and black pepper, as well as that floral/agave note. And maybe, just maybe, a briny note. I don't know it that's just the salt or my lack of experience in this genre speaking. Either way. This is a damn good sip. Finish: Moderate-to-short in length. More citrus and a nice sweet vanilla note. On the way out it's salt and pepper, and more of that brine that I may be mistaking for something else. And there you have it. It's quite good. I'm no expert in this field as I've pointed, but this is definitely something I will keep stocked in my home bar. It's a great change of pace, and is well worth the $46 I paid for it. Really delicious stuff. Would love to try this at a slightly higher proof, but it's a small qualm. And perhaps tequilas are usually bottled at 40% ABV? I couldn't say. Next up is the DJ Lagavulin cask. This seems like a fun genre for a whisky drinker. I've tried a couple good mezcals which appeal to inner Islay fanboy. But for now, this is a great way to kick off my exploration into tequila. Highly recommended.
