"The aroma of Mijenta blanco tequila is what first had our taster hooked, but their first sip delivered even more layers of flavor - including sweet melon, pineapple, and a soft, toasty notes similar to banana bread. The tequila is rich but not heavy, with a creamy mouthfeel and an easy finish. Mijenta beat out some of the biggest names on the shelf - including Don Julio, Casamigos, and Patrón."
"Mijenta is the kind of tequila that doesn't need much. Experts attest that Mijenta blanco is smooth enough to sip on its own and flavorful enough to carry a cocktail without disappearing. It's a great example of why blancos are often recommended to tequila beginners. Whether you're into zesty paloma cocktails or classic frozen margaritas, or just want to try it over ice with a lime wedge, this tequila shows through every time."
A blind tasting of 29 popular blanco tequilas identified Mijenta blanco as the standout for quality and value. Mijenta offers layered aromas and flavors such as sweet melon, pineapple, and soft toasty notes reminiscent of banana bread, with a creamy mouthfeel and an easy finish. The bottle is smooth enough to sip neat and flavorful enough to hold up in cocktails like palomas and margaritas. Mijenta is traditionally distilled in the highlands of Jalisco, is additive-free, and was co-founded by Ana Maria Romero, a rare female maestra tequilera.
