Nose was good but nothing really stuck out more than a little agave and earthy/smokiness. The flavor is delightfully eye widening and a nicely balanced blend of sweet agave, citrus/lemon-pepper, mint/eucalyptus, mineral-earthiness and a little charcoal grill type smokiness.I get a picture in my mind of the agave halves, or quarters, roasting on an open grill grate. A light and refreshing creaminess and slight oily mouth feel. The finish is rich and bold and the flavors hang on to the lips and tongue nicely. There is a little surprising heat on the back but isn't overwhelming and just adds another dimension to this delightful offering. Will definitely buy again!
Very nice nose, cooked agave with a peppery mint-like smell. Taste is a spicy cooked agave with a nice mouthfeel. Medium finish with a little burn. I was told that there was not going to be any more of this line so I grabbed one of the last bottles, might not be able to buy any soon.

A viscous tequila that is vegetal in nature, indicative of the harvest. The initial aroma, to me, smelled like croutons, which i have to think ties back to the leavenings in the fermentation process. The citrus lingers on the palate. Very fruit forward and aromatic. Flavors of black pepper and agave throughout. It has a sweet, olive brine finish that lasts a long time.
