Nose: Walnuts, filberts, toffee, dusty/dry earth, trace cedar, ripe dark fruit,and caramelized agave. Flavor: Vanilla, almond/hazelnuts, salted caramel, “ jerk hot” barrel spice, cinnamon and black pepper burn on the back of the palate. Popping spice notes, yet silky in the mouth. Finish: A well crafted, balanced and exciting profile that I could drink all evening.
Here are 6 tequilas to impress any tequila fan, geek, snob, or nerd.
We gave it this nickname when we noticed that women at our #tequila tasting events were drinking so much of it that they were “killing the bottle.”
Aroma has subtle cooked agave sweetness and other fruits (cherry, apple, pear). Complex flavor profile with sweetness of fruit, some astringent minerality and ends with bitter almond. So much flavor and very, very good. Long finish that lingers with great flavor. 12/24/2020 - 8th Annual Xmas XA tasting
