Tequila Joe's Collection
4 Copas Blanco
My Tasting Notes: 4 Copas Blanco is clear in color.  Aromas consist of intense earth
and floral followed by moderate fruit, smoke, pepper, and spice scents.  The first sip of
the tequila is sweet and has a low-to-no amount of bitterness.  The types of flavors 4
Copas Blanco has include intense earth and floral.  On the mild side, there are agave,
spice, pepper, and smoky flavors.  Unfortunately, the tequila finished with a short
duration of flavor and a slight tingly alcohol intensity.

Other Info: 4 Copas is one of our sponsors for the Tasting Aficionados and has
participated with us in numerous events.  They were kind enough to donate bottles on
numerous occasions and one of their donations is featured here as their Blanco.

According to the neck tag on the bottle of 4 Copas, "Centuries of tradition and fine
craftsmanship are the essence of this superb spirit, proud ambassador of Mexican
roots and culture.  Cuatro Copas is made of 100% blue agave, the soul of tequila,
which grows in our fields for at least eight years.  Tequila Blanco is bottled after double
distillation, Tequila Reposado is aged in blackened white oak barrels for at least six
months, while Tequila Anejo is aged for at least one year.  

We are proud to bring life to one of the finest tequilas in the world."

In addition to the neck tag, the
4 Copas website provides the following information
about their Blanco:

"4 Copas Blanco is about as close to the agave as you can get. The blue agave is
estate grown, organically certified and tested for peak sugar content individually
before harvest. Sebastian Melendez goes to work and the first result of his magical
process is 4 Copas Blanco.

The Blanco wins the hearts of connoisseurs and chefs for it's purity, lemon lime and
peppery characteristics. The beauty of using the best, pure agave known to man and
eliminating all impurities in the process of refining it, is it's taste and the way it makes
you feel. This elixir is wildly popular because of Enrico Caruso's Organic Margarita,
which is plainly, unanimously "The best Margarita I have ever tasted" wherever it is
poured!"
