Plata Tequila

Category: Blanco Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico

Clear color. Meaty, funky, waxy, piney aromas and flavors of leather and wax, shoe polish, cedar pine needles, kiwi, tropical notes, dried orange, and rose water with a round, crisp, dryish medium-to-full body and a warming, delightful, medium-long finish manifesting notes of lime peel, lemon verbena, pine, juniper berry, marzipan, and thyme and oregano. A fresh and herbal blanco for shots and the like.

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.
