Laelia Tequila Blanco Review
The claim of “tahona crushed” agave on the label is certainly meant to appeal to tequila nerds, but it doesn’t feel like it was taken quite far enough. It is just a touch earthy with the expected flavors and aromas of cooked agave and citrus, but it remains fairly clean and crisp. I’d love for it to have a little more rustic character, but it is indeed solid and worth your time.
