Un tequila joven elegante y bien ensamblado. Notas de manzana dulce, maple y ligero toque de miel se conjugan de manera equilibrada con las notas de agave bien cocido. Las notas de barrica del tequila reposado aparecen en el primer momento, para después dar el protagónico al agave, para terminar con notas de mantequilla y una ligera nota de vainilla natural, no la típica vainilla artificial. Muy bien logrado.

Aromas of guayabana (lots of tropical fruit), vanilla, slight leather and clove. Buttery taste and cooked agave sweetness. Balanced with a nice mouthfeel and spicy finish. Score was slightly lower due to price.

Aroma has fruit, vanilla and leather. More vanilla and agave in the flavor. The finish has a sweet, buttery, agave thing going on that I really like. There’s some slight barrel spice in the finish as well. Overall a nice gently aged clean product.

Nose: Fruity nose of extremely ripe pears, figs, lemon/lime, passion fruit, and baked spiced apples. Spice combination of cloves, cinnamon and light vanilla. An effervescent mineral pop to the aroma, with arid earthy overtones. Trace wood notes. Flavor: Significant spice and Szechuan pepper join forces with dill, basil and fine herbs. Caramel like buttery agave. Some brininess. There is a faint taste of a vinyl compound - reminiscent of a vinyl shower curtain. Finish: More fruit notes appear in the finish - some new teases of cherry and pineapple. Persisting spice and heat fade slowly. Slight bitterness, but not to a fault. Of note: This Joven is a blanco/repo blend. This blend is then rested briefly. My rating reflects a downward price point adjustment.
