Clear color. Aromas and flavors of juniper berries and bay leaves, tart dry cherries, red apple skins, and cinnamon, brown sugar maple pop tarts, and sea salt on green mango with a round, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish that presents nuances of mashed plantain paste, cherry pie dough, anise, hemp, and boiled peanuts, and stewed sweet peppers and claro tobacco. Incredible red fruits on the nose and palate with an interesting interplay of fresh savory herbs; bursting with flavors but not overwhelming.

Silver or Blanco/White Tequilas are clear, with little (no more than 60 days in stainless steel tanks) or no aging. They can be either 100% agave or mixto. Silver Tequilas are used primarily for mixing and blend particularly well into fruit-based drinks.
