Not complex. Easy sipper Finish: nice finish sweet agave and pepper Other: Additve-free free Pretty bottle $55 oldtown Cold filtered!?!? My rating 82/83ish
Subtle nose and palate. Easy to drink but nothing exciting here and left me wanting more.
Soft nose of cooked agave, honey, combed cotton. Tiny hint of rubber ball. Thick in the glass and pleasantly luscious in the mouth. Coats the whole palette. Tastes of raw agave, white pepper, vanilla and a bit of jalapeño. Spicy and fairly long finish with a little burn. A bit of acetate at the end. An easy drinker overall. Worthy effort, and a good trade up for Casamigos and 818 drinkers.
Forget Cristalinos and embrace some real agave innovation.
