I Usually Avoid Honey Tequila… But This One Surprised Me! | Blue Star Reposado Honey Review

Honey tequila review, Blue Star Reposado Honey review, infused tequila review, flavored tequila review, Blue Star Spirits tequila, honey tequila tasting notes, tequila reviews 2026. When I first heard about Blue Star Reposado Honey Tequila, I wasn’t sure what to expect. As someone who usually prefers traditional additive-free tequilas, flavored and infused tequilas aren’t normally my first choice. But after seeing Blue Star recognized at the Agavos Awards and receiving a bottle to review, I decided to give it a fair shot. Produced at NOM 1589 in Jalisco, Mexico, Blue Star Reposado Honey combines reposado tequila aged 3-4 months with 100% natural honey sourced from artisan beekeepers in Jalisco. The result is a sweet but surprisingly balanced tequila that still allows some agave character to shine through. In this review I’ll cover: Aroma and tasting notes Production methods Honey infusion process Who this tequila is for Whether it’s worth the $44.99 price tag Have you tried a honey tequila before?

This unreleased tequila from NOM 1522 was crafted by Master Distiller Iliana Partida and aged 14 months in French oak Cabernet Sauvignon barrels from Napa Valley.

I Never Drink Cuervo… But a Viewer Requested This Review

A viewer asked me to review Jose Cuervo Tradicional Blanco, a tequila I would not normally choose for myself. After recently visiting La Rojeña Distillery in Tequila, Mexico, seeing the stone ovens, roller mills, temperature-controlled fermentation tanks, and copper stills, I decided it was time to give this tequila a fair and honest review. Jose Cuervo is one of the most recognized names in tequila, but it’s also one of the most criticized among tequila enthusiasts. Does Cuervo Tradicional Blanco deserve that reputation, or is it better than many people think? In this review, I share my thoughts on the aroma, flavor, finish, production methods, and whether this bottle is worth your money. Most importantly, I answer the question: would I buy it again?
