I love the whole history of this brand and tradition. I hope that the new company that bought them keeps doing it the same way( which I haven't tried it yet). Too bad they changed the bottle design. The aromas is agave, soft vanilla and soft oak, red apple, yes the smell of the red apple just after bitting it. The flavour it's agave, oak, pepper. There is a tiny flavour of bitterness and alcohol at the end, that doesn't make me fall madly in love with it but definitely it's a great reposado and a great tequila. This tequila makes me feel I'm in a town in my hometown in Mexico, in a cantina hearing Banda playing and enjoying myself.

Smooth on the nose, with rich agave and floral notes. On the sweeter side of the spectrum, tastes of caramel and pepper. Has a pleasantly bitter, vegetal finish.
