Review: Topo Chico Hard Seltzer

by Jeff Ellingson

Topo Chico Hard Seltzer has arrived.  For those unfamiliar with the Topo Chico brand it is a wildly popular mineral water sourced from a limestone spring under Cerro del Topo Chico, a mountain near Monterrey Mexico.  It has been bottled and sold since 1895.  In 2017 Coca Cola acquired the brand and expanded distribution throughout the US.  In September 2020 Coco Cola announced they were working with Molson-Coors to manufacture, market, and distribute Topo Chico Hard seltzer.  The brand was first released in Mexico and Brazil and it was recently introduced in Europe.  In the US the four flavor 12 can variety pack includes three cans each of Strawberry Guava, Tropical Mango, Exotic Pineapple, and Tangy Lemon Lime.  In Europe Strawberry Guava is replaced with Cherry Acai.  Like the traditional hard seltzer brands Topo Chico is made from purified carbonated water and a cane sugar alcohol base.  Natural flavors are added.  Unlike other hard seltzer brands, minerals are added to align with the Topo Chico palate profile.  Initial distribution is limited to Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Boston, Cape Cod, Chicago, NYC, N Jersey, Seattle, and DC.

Topo Chico Strawberry Guava Hard Seltzer:  The aroma leads with ripe strawberry.  Guava follows.  The fresh strawberry entry is joined by juicy guava.  It fades with cream softened sour strawberry and finishes with a soft mineral water texture.

Grade: A-

Topo Chico Tropical Mango Hard Seltzer:  The aroma is fresh sliced mango.  The ripe mango entry builds to a tangy mango peak.  It fades with cream softened orange peel and finishes with mango, citrus, coconut, mineral, and subtle carbon seltzer taste.

Grade: B+

Topo Chico Exotic Pineapple Hard Seltzer:  The aroma is tropical pineapple.  The sweet pineapple entry builds to a juicy pineapple peak.  It fades with tangy pineapple and whipped cream and finishes with sour pineapple and carbon seltzer taste.  While there is a little more carbon seltzer on the back end than the first two Topo Chico flavors sampled,  what I like about Topo Chico Exotic Pineapple is I don’t get any on the over sweet or canned pineapple taste I get from some other pineapple hard seltzer brands.

Grade: B+
