The stronger, the better when it comes to the champagne of Mexico.
Aroma: Earth, melon. Agave, surprisingly coming after the earth and melon aromas. Citrus, Orange peel specifically. Good bit of ethanol. Palate: Cooked agave punch right to the face. Definitely some heat but not unbalanced at all. A touch of pear, first time I’ve ever noticed this in a tequila. A sweet fruit note on the back end that I can’t put my finger on. Very pleasant tequila that opens up wonderfully. Verdict: I recently revisited this and it’s just really solid stuff. I picked it up for $46 at a small place in San Diego and it is absolutely killer at that price. Very good stuff.
