Here's The Best Tequila Brand On Liquor Store Shelves
BY Julia Holland
While most tequila brands offer tequila blanco in their repertoire, Tasting Table's taste testers found Mijenta blanco to be the best on the market.
Mijenta Tequila is a Mexican distillery in tequila's birthplace, the highlands of Jalisco. It uses the highest quality blue Weber agave artfully distilled by a female tequilera.
The brand has won a Gold award from USA Spirits Ratings and a 97-point score from The Tasting Panel Magazine. It has a smooth, buttery finish and three waves of aromas and flavors.
The flavor starts with aromas of honey and agave, moves to white pepper and citrus, and then hits with fruit-forward tasting notes of melon, pineapple, and banana bread.
