Welcome back to Episode 3 of Training My Tequila Nose, the tequila sensory training series where I use a professional sommelier aroma kit to improve my ability to identify tequila aromas, tasting notes, and flavor profiles. In this episode, I focus on spice and pepper notes while comparing two very different tequilas: Bramido High Proof Blanco Tierra de Ensueño Reposado Using blind aroma training, I test black pepper and clove completely blind to see if aroma recognition actually changes the way tequila tastes in the glass. This episode dives deeper into: pepper notes in tequila barrel spice aroma recognition high-proof tequila reposado tequila sensory training palate development tequila education The more I do this series, the more I realize tequila tasting is not about making up fancy notes — it’s about training your brain to recognize aromas you already know inside a much more complex experience. If you enjoy tequila reviews, additive-free tequila, high-proof blancos, reposados, blind tastings, agave spirits, bourbon, whiskey, and tequila education, this series is for you.
