Tequila Review #1:
Cazadores Blanco
NOM: #1487
Nose: Cazadores has a strong alcohol smell with a slight scent of cooked agave, the agave notes being the only difference from a run-of-the-mill vodka. The smell is slightly medicinal and the overall odour mildly unpleasant.
Taste: It has a strong, harsh, alcoholic taste with only hot notes of pepper. Acerbic and not subtle or complex whatsoever. Of the five or six tequilas I've had, this is probably the worst. Both El Jimador and Espolon are better blancos than this. I would have almost preferred if they added some chemical additives. Overall, it's undesirable to the taste. It doesn't even make a good mixer for margaritas, with the usually harsh taste almost completely dissolving in the ice and resulting in a flat, watery margarita.
Finish: Basically zero. A second or two of lingering alcohol flavour.
Price: I bought this on sale for a couple dollars cheaper than my usual El Jimador. Normally it's more expensive than El Jimador, which is a better tequila, which keeps it from being good value apart from this one instance.
Rating: 52/100
