Nose: Yeast, Raisin, Floral, Anise, Cinnamon, Mint, Green Apple, Vegetal Mouthfeel: light-bodied, Palate: Cinnamon, Smoke, Black Pepper Finish: Cherry, Almond, Toffee, Clove, Cinnamon This Añejo is very rich. The body is light, but the flavor is far from it. I get lots of dried fruit, nutty, and spice notes in this one. The finish is very impressive, long and full of character.
Tasted at NOM 1414 This añejo and the reposado are absolutely amazing!
Old school tutti frutti flavor profile (Grape, fruity, floral, sweet citrus) Definitely a great reposado

Vessel : Glencairn Nose: Carmel, Cinnamon, Plum, Molasses, Citrus, Agave Cooked and Raw Palate: Grass,Butter, Carmel, Black Pepper, Minerality Finish: Butter, Shortbread, Fig, Almond, Toffee From the nose to finish, there's so much going on here. I get dried fruit, molasses, and sugarcookie/shortbread through the entire experience. I get some orange/citrus notes on the nose, but they're only making a cameo. The palate is spicey and vegetal, yet sweet and robust. The finish is long. It brings the robust to a climax and ends with a more dominant sweetness to balance it out. This is a top notch pour.
