Lots of alcohol and agave all-around. Caramel and wood notes initially, then earth, agave, pepper and some chocolate on the palate. Finish is medium to short, dark chocolate and mocha.
Might be my favourite expression of this brand, the dryness and spice from the oak finally provide a counterpoint to the sweet ending. Drinks more like a rye whiskey than a tequila but it’s pleasant enough.
This doesn’t stray far from the profile of the blanco except it has a really gentle nose, almost neutral. Unbalanced sweetness shows up at the end to round things off, it’s ok.
The nose and flavour until mid palette are bang on, you can close your eyes and get all the sensations of walking through a distillery! Loses me a bit at the ending, tons of sweetness shows up that doesn’t fit with the rest of the profile, it’s a pretty big let down. A decent effort that I think will be popular amongst the rabble.
Aroma: Very similar to the Blanco and Reposado. I get a lot of medicinal harshness at the front. Behind that is a bit of butterscotch and mint. Flavor: Not a ton going on. It's sweet. Lots of vanilla but besides that there isn't much... I was hoping for something a bit more complex. Finish: A little more mellow than the Blanco and Reposado. It's still solid but definitely less harsh.
Nothing fun with this.
