El Sueño Tequila Gold

Both smells and tastes thin, was ok in a mixed drink but by itself was rather absent

So smooth. Has a wonderful after taste of caramel and a touch of pepper.

I decided to by a bottle to make the grapefruit ‘lagerita’ I saw on Sunday Brunch. Absolutely amazing cocktail and even enjoy the tequila by itself, never thought I’d say that. Will be buying more!

I bought this before I saw the negative reviews appear and became a little worried once I read them. I knew it was a mixto as I'd read the hype but I have had outstanding mixtos in the US before so thought I'd give it a go. I needn't have worried, this is an excellent tequila for the money. You can pay the extra few £ for a diffuser made 100% agave and you will be disappointed. This stuff is made right (just google the production) and I for one support them.

Probably the best Mixto Tequila going. But it's a Mixto...So it's not pulling up any trees taste wise - hence the low rating. You're getting something really quite thin in terms of mouth feel, and it lacks the earthy agave flavour due it not being 100% agave.

You can spend £5 - £6 more and buy a very reasonable 100% agave "true" Tequila like e.g. Olmeca Altos.

For a mixto this is actually pretty good but for the same price you could get a bottle of El Jimador Reposado (similar taste) which for all its faults is simply a better spirit. This is thin and watery by comparison and the nose is 90% ethanol. I wanted to be pleasantly surprised and say nice things but it is what is is.

I have been buying their silver tequila but it does sell out a fair bit so have the gold a go based on the other reviews. Will be buying this from now on as well. Same fresh agave hit but with a nice oaky finish.

I can’t quite believe the price of this stuff, it’s an absolute steal. I 100% recommend this tequila, fantastic by itself or with soda and lime. Refreshing and amazingly smooth!

Like the other review says, I have been drinking their silver tequila but it seems to sell out fast on master of malt so I thought I’d try the gold as it’s at the same price point. It is also a great tequila. Similar in flavour and finish with a slightly increased mouth feel and notes of oak and butter. I proudly have both on the home bar now 🥃

I had their silver tequila so wanted to try the gold. It’s aged in oak (according to the bottle) and it definitely brings a slightly more complex finish with sweeter notes. Quiet frankly, it’s really good stuff. Really impressed with both tequilas from El Sueno for less than 20 quid. Nothing else comes close in the price range, and I’ve tried a lot.
