About this deal

From our first sip, we’re surprised by its pleasing agave aromas on the nose leading to more complexity on the mouth and a bittersweet aftertaste. A very slight - but not unpleasant - bitterness/sourness comes through, less so when warmed up somewhat; this is coupled with a slightly diminished continuation of the initial taste, albeit without the fruit. There is a hint of wood in there, with some obvious cooked agave - you can taste the 'cookedness' (struggling to put this into words) of it. There's some mild spice in there too, although I don't find the cinnamon that others have. I do get the butterscotchiness though; it's a very smooth feel. Jimador Blanco Tequila is a solid and well-made distillate that has been around since 1897 and ranks among the worlds most popular tequilas. This is not a handmade product or anything particularly valuable, but it is a discrete tequila that does not let you down and is clean and precise from a technical point of view.

El Jimador Añejo spends an entire year ageing in American oak barrels, lending it an unrivalled soft and sweet taste, plus a rich dark amber colour. This tequila is rich, full-bodied, and can make any occasion special. On The Nose

Although they only offer three tequila styles, each is an incredible taste journey with a distinctive and refreshing flavour profile. The old distillery was shut down in the 1960’s and replaced with a newer modern facility, but the old buildings were maintained as a museum. In the 1970’s, the company introduced their first aged expressions, expanding beyond blanco tequila for the first time.

An earthy flavour characterised by oak-aged agave, cinnamon, and butterscotch. Delicious sweetness lingers throughout, and the caramel notes are an undisputed highlight. Like other El Jimador tequilas, Blanco uses only pure Weber blue agave. These notes are present throughout the spirit and are joined on the nose with fresh citrus, vegetal, and light wood aromas. On The Palate The brand was the seventh-biggest-selling Tequila in the world, according to The Brand Champions 2023 report. It sold 1.7 million nine-litre cases last year, an increase of 21.4%. I particularly like the branding here. the label is as small and unobtrusive as possible, wrapping around near the base and leaving the majority of the surface area completely clear and transparent. This might not be quite as important with a blanco tequila as it would with an aged version, but it does help to consumers see the quality and the clarity of the product inside the bottle.
