At first the aroma wasn't bad. once I opened it and noticed it was a Twist Off I figured it was a red flag. And it sure was. the first Aroma I got was Vanilla with some sweetness and pepper, and lots of alcohol. it starts very sharp and ends with the harsh burn. In-between there's vanilla and slightly fruity. but the alcohol burn is just too much and makes this undrinkable simply put
This does have a sharp, astringent finish but I must be in the mood for that, as I find that I am enjoying this añejo. Oak and barrel spice along with some alcohol add to the bottling.
El Olor: Sweet and buttery. Not like most Tequila. Maybe a little understated vegetal like crops or grass. Could be agave. El Sabor: Buttery with a little saltiness. Peppery. Cooked agave and caramel notes too. El Final: Great finish. Lingers long enough to let you know you drank a nice juice and then makes way for hors d'ovures. I'd pair this with a dry aged beef steak.
This one caught us by surprise for several reasons. First, the price: at $29 we didn’t expect much, but you never know. Second, the packaging: a tequila bottle wrapped in a burlap sack? What was it hiding? Turns out, it’s only hiding tastiness.
