A good one, if you like, whiskey, or scotch. But definitely not for me. Bitter on the finish.

The aroma is sweet with the agave present but the overwhelming smell that diffused agaves project is loud and proud. The taste that diffused agaves have is unmistakably present amongst the other flavors and nuances that barrel resting imparts. I would not wantonly imbibe this tequila again.
