Jose Cuervo Platino Review:
Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Platino Tequila is a well-balanced Tequila made from 100% blue agave with a nice citrus aroma and a clean, creamy taste with a nice finish.
This is a beautifully crafted, masterfully aged, premium, white Tequila that is deliciously smooth and absolutely stunning in appearance with a silky smoky taste.
Clear, amazingly, water-clear, I would have thought the distilled spirit in this Tequila was triple distilled and then sprayed with a substance that makes the liquid ‘clear’ as it would be in a glass.

Jose Cuervo Platino Review:
I personally prefer a tequila to be more ‘mellow’ and ‘smooth’ in flavor and to have more depth when drinking Tequila. However, those who find Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Platino Tequila too subtle will still find this Tequila very pleasant to drink.
The beautiful packaging of Jose Cuervo Platino Tequila as well as the citrusy, “zingy,” slightly sweet flavoring that the dark Tequila has when combined with lime juice is a little unique and enjoyable.
Jose Cuervo Platino Review:
This smooth, light yellowish Tequila is without a doubt one of the ‘unbelievable Tequilas’ of the world. It’s amazing how every time I drink it I am amazed by it’s flavor and delicate packaging. Light citrus notes with a slight smoky cedar scent and notes of pronounced honey and a hint of vanilla combine to make this Tequila very enjoyable to drink.
As I have consumed other ‘fine Tequilas’ before, I must admit that I really don’t like Tequilas. However, with this tequila I have to say, there is something about it, something I can’t put my finger on that I love. Perhaps it’s the smoothness or perhaps it’s the slightly sweet vanilla note or the way it lasts on my palette. Well, whatever it is, it’s something I want to taste again and again, but this time I want to drink it all night!
Jose Cuervo Platino Review:
The taste is quite smooth and the first flavors that come through is a light citrus after taste. The nose is a faint smoky cedar and light honey. I like the touch of vanilla and the way this tastes. Well, don’t take my word for it, try it for yourself!
This is the original, aromatics are very slight, cedar and some light, very subtle vanilla. The smooth taste is light and in the finish it’s just a light hint of cedar and a taste of honey. Overall, it’s very mild and smooth but the cedar is evident and it does have a light smoky aroma. The slightly sweet after taste is very light and smooth.
Jose Cuervo Platino Review:
This Tequila is as good as they come, lean and light with a nice smoky cedar flavor and slight vanilla touch. As I have mentioned before, I only drink Tequila in small amounts and this is just one of those Tequilas that I want to have again and again but in small amounts!
It is a very light tasting Tequila, without the burn that you would expect from some of the darker Tequilas, and the smoky cedar scent combined with the light vanilla flavor is just delightful!
This is a smooth, light Tequila, with the taste and smell of light cedar and light honey. It has a nice touch of vanilla in the after taste. This is a classy Tequila. I would highly recommend it. Although this is better in a highball, if you are drinking straight this is just about perfect.
This is no ‘blasting Tequila.’ This is a solidly well made Tequila that just suits a highball. The age of this product has just been written on the bottle and the Tequila is just about 18 months old. This is a nice lighter Tequila although it does have a smoky after taste.

Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Review:
To be perfectly honest, I like light tasting Tequilas, so I was not at all surprised that I liked this one. The smooth, light taste of this Tequila is creamy and delicious. The color and the nose reminds me of an expensive Champagne. The after taste is smooth and pleasing.
Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Review:
This is the most expensive, premium Tequila in the Jose Cuervo family. Think of it as the ‘Champagne of Tequila.’ It is a very pleasant, smooth tasting Tequila with a hint of fruitiness. The touch of sweetness is light and the after taste is very light and smooth.
Jose Cuervo Reserve de la Familia is made from an extra old batch of blue agave that is bottled with the utmost care and great attention to detail in an individually numbered bottle.
Jose Cuervo Reserve de la Familia Review:
This is the mouthwatering, award winning, smooth and tasty Tequila made from 100% old agave and r ealy not going to harm a fly. As with any Tequila from any of the premium handcrafted Tequilas of the world, this is served with ice, a splash of lime, sugar, salt and possibly some chives.
This being said, the cordial and pleasant after taste will surprise you and leave you a bit surprised. It has a smooth and mellow, slightly spicy, sweet taste that is nicely balanced. All in all this is such a classy Tequila and it is truly a treat to drink.
