Nose: Up front, robust ripe agave. This is made with a high pressure autoclave. But the aroma reminds me more of low pressure and slow cooked high Brix agaves. There is light spice, cinnamon, and soft vanilla notes. Subtle cooked artichoke and green banana scents. Flavor: The agave flavors parallel the aromas. There is a warming pepper and cinnamon presence that plays well with the vanilla cream and almond paste suggestions. A cooked vegetal touch in the mix. Great balance and mouth feel. Finish: It does not evolve a whole lot on the finish, a tiny bit of smokiness and anise show up. It is a very pleasant sipper that I could envision drinking for an entire evening.

Cooked agave, fruit, and a tiny bit of vanilla in the aroma. More cooked agave in the flavor. Has a nice natural mouth feel. Finish is short. This is not a super complex tequila, but it is quite good.

Vegetal notes open up to cake batter. Very alcohol aroma/taste for a 38% abv. Mildly sweet with a short finish. Simple.

Pretty much as close to perfect as I’ve had, it’s 100% agave forward, soft, perfect mouthfeel. Really exceptional!!!
