It is surprisingly sweet, could be additives or could be the barrels that were used. It is a dessert Tequila but it is not offensive like other sweet tequilas, it tastes more natural.

Very plain all around. Aroma, taste and finish are all ok but without much happening. Aroma is a bit perfumish if you like that kind of thing.

aroma and flavor predominantly caramel, vanilla and cinnamon. a touch of cognac oak on flavor. light, mild finish. not cloying, not off-putting, just not very complex. really lacks agave, doesn't fit my flavor profile. price point is decent. I would take San Matias XA, Gran Mayan Anejo over this for similar price. better than Clase Azul, adictivo, cava de Oro, compoveda, cincoro
