Episode Description from the Publisher

Can you actually smell flowers in tequila? Welcome back to Episode 4 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. Today we’re focusing on one of the most misunderstood tequila tasting notes: floral aromas. Using a blind aroma challenge, I test myself on floral notes and then compare what I smell against two incredible additive-free blancos: La Pulga 110 High Proof Blanco Siempre Exclusivo Vivo Blanco Many tequila drinkers hear reviewers talk about floral notes, orange blossom, jasmine, honeysuckle, and delicate aromas—but can you actually identify them blind? More importantly, can aroma training help you recognize those same characteristics inside a glass of tequila? In this episode we explore: Floral notes in tequila Blind aroma training Tequila sensory development High-proof tequila tasting Additive-free tequila Aroma recognition techniques How professional tasters develop their palate The goal of this series isn’t to sound fancy—it’s to train our brains to recognize aromas and become better tequila tasters together.
