MY HOLY GRAIL - 2014 (barrel 25) -43.2abv-single barrel/single proof. Nose- oak, sweet whiskey, tea, dried fruit, caramel, leather, light smoke. Taste- oak. sweet whiskey, caramel, smoke, leather, fruit, light alc, tea. Can't say enough.

2014

Lots of caramel, vanilla, oak in the nose. Some citrus/apple notes similar to Don Pilar. A little thin on the body. In the between a bourbon and ET70th a little. A little pricey but all around solid.

this was my favorite of the three Siembra XA that I tried. this is for the 2014 year bottle. Aroma - sweet caramel /cooked agave says yellow as it enters your mouth. then comes on a little peppery heat, some dark fruit (plum) I really like the way this smells. makes it so I can't wait to taste. Taste- starts out sweet just like the nose. sweet agave says yellow on this one with a little vanilla and caramel mixes in then light pepper comes in and leaves pretty quicly followed by some light oak. doesn't end as bitter as the Suro and pinera. finish: dry with a light oaky, earthy bitterness. not a lot just enough to balance out the initial sweetness. This is my favorite of the three siembra Azul XAs. I could definitely see this as an after dinner drink.

Nose: butterscotch and hints of vanilla and caramel. Taste: Agave, butterscotch...smooth.

Aroma: Nutty, Vanilla, Caramel, faint Orange Peel. Taste: Vanilla, Caramel, Sweet Sugar Cane, Some Oak (gives it a little bitterness & spiciness)...medium bodied with a somewhat long finish. Overall: this is a delicious tequila no doubt. Because I don't prefer much oak in my tequilas, I prefer the Siembra Azul Suro XA.

Complex, fantastic nose, superb finish. Better than Tapatio excellencia

Great flavor for $99.
