We compared Clase Azul against Patron Silver and 1800 Silver. Patron Silver - has a stronger initial start. A full mouth flavor and longer taste envelope than Clase Azul. It has very smoky and earthy flavor notes. 1800 Silver - strong bite to start, shorter flavor envelope than Clase Azul. Distinct aftertaste. To be completely honest, both Patron and 1800 Silver taste practically the same as each other. I; however, thoroughly enjoyed Clase Azul La Pinta’s sweet pomegranate flavor and non-overpowering taste. I usually prefer “manly” drinks such as whiskey over fruit-flavored so-called “girly” drinks, but I can say with confidence there is nothing “girly” about La Pinta.•
