Complex nose: Deep butterscotch and toffee notes start the waves of aromas. Baking spices, chiefly nutmeg and cinnamon red hots, vanilla and ripe dark fruit follow. There are undercurrents of lactic and earth. Flavors: Very Oily with potent baking spice and black pepper. Rich butterscotch, vanilla and anise keep the pepper in check - but just barely. This tequila has a richness to it.
