very light aroma, smooth flavor, definastely has tones of the oak barrel. finish drops off fast

Quite woody from the extended aging, the price also holds this back for me in the rating. Strong oak notes with minimal agave influence and some heavy char elements from the barrel.

Nose: Penetrating ripe round fresh fruit aromas marrying nicely with bourbon oak. Dried fruit: apricot, plum and and citron. There are spices of cinnamon, cloves and prominent vanilla weaving their way through the nosing. A final note of pungent minerals. Flavor: The 44.4% ABV makes for a vibrant mouth experience. It is spicy, having a slightly acrid black pepper note, some jalapeño, a white pepper afterthought, peachy nuances, vanilla and a “creamy” woodiness. Finish: The palate and finish on this tequila remind me of top tier XAs. It has been a difficult tequila for me to rate. It has more oak and bourbon presence than I normally appreciate. But the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Citrus, leather, pitted fruit, oak aromas. Vanilla, cooked agave, raisin flavors. Great finish of moderate length. Thick mouth feel. Solid product.
