Smooth sweet burnt agave with pepper finish ... Yes, also a tiny bit of a gluey flavor but it's ok.
This is a big authentic tequila with lots of bold agave present on the nose and palate, and a great pepper finish. I think I lean a bit more to the older 1079 crop, but I can't fault the newer 1580.
Tequila ArteNOM, from Las Joyas del Agave, is unique in that it draws tequila from several different distilleries, acting like a curator and showing off the “house style” of different distilleries.
