Confirmed Additive-Free Brand
The aromas jump out of the glass. It’s an excellent nose that’s full of buttery cooked agave with bright citrus (lime, lemon & orange) zest and earthy minerals. There’s some earthy pine, zesty green peppers, light alcohol vapors, and heavy brine. It’s bright and aromatic while still being dense and complex without being confusing. The aromas meld well together. I love this nose. The mouthfeel is amazing. The tequila is viscous and buttery while simultaneously being savory and spicy. The buttery-cooked agave is accompanied by savory & spicy peppers, herbs (rosemary & sage), dark vegetal notes and a deep earthy quality. The minerality is present and there's a hint of citrus rind. The finish is long and peppery with lingering earthy vegetal notes.
The 12 finalists are tequilas that offer vibrant and varied aromas and flavors with good texture and a pleasing aftertaste.
