Category: Flavored Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Straw yellow color. Aromas and flavors of pineapple, caramel stroopwaffel, and lemon peel with a velvety, tangy, dryish light-to-medium body and a warming, interesting, very long finish with overtones of flowers in ginger juice, chili, rotting pineapple, and caramel syrup. A spicy addition to any agave based cocktail.

Given that flavored vodka has been so popular, it should come as no surprise that flavored tequilas are now appearing on the market. Flavors include orange, pepper and of course, lime for your very own margarita. Quality on the whole is average as some of these are a bit sweet, but pepper tequilas display a nice spiciness, whether you use them for cocktails or a shot.
