Touch of smokiness at the finish
One of the best XAs out there on many levels. Each release varies slightly on the nose and palate. The Diamond release like the rest is agave forward, followed by cherry, berries, figs, dried apricot and pineapple, citrus, cinnamon, sweet smoky oak, nutty, minerals, etc.. very complex and ever changing linger. Proper XA.
Aroma: A pleasant blend of oak, cooked agave, caramel, and vanilla. Taste: Vanilla and caramel across the pallet, mixed with sweet cooked agave and dried apricot. Finish: Cooked agave and dried apricot, with the same notes of caramel, oak, and vanilla present throughout. Lingering taste coupled with a nice dryness, one can taste the alcohol but the bite is almost non-existent. Overall: An amazingly good extra añejo, one of the best without question.
