This is an old bottle I found in my collection recently. Bottle #1304. It’s perfectly intact and time has had any affecting it. Nose is old school Blanco. Only agave. Mid palate is balanced. A bit of natural sweetness. The finish is very pleasant. Roasted agave fills my mouth. A small bit of welcoming heat. I wish it would linger a bit longer.
Nose: nice cooked agave, wet rocks, ripe banana, hint of vanilla. Flavor: sugar cane, black pepper, banana and vanilla. Finish: long and the cooked agave shows up and ends with some light spice
Nose: Aged oak barrel chips. Ripe, slightly bruised dark tree fruit and berries. Cinnamon, maple, vanilla bean and citrus zest. A whisper of white pepper. Pungent alkaline minerals. Flavor: Rich silky texture, with pepper and barrel spices heating up the entrada. Creamy vanilla & maple present as in the nose - but the fruit is taking a back seat on the palate. Citrus notes bloom halfway through.
