Lote 101 060/738 I was gifted the blanco, repo and añejo for evaluation purposes. I do not know the msrp. The brand is making a comeback after 5 generations. Brand partner, Jose Luis Ruiz is the grandson of Arenal pioneer Don Roberto Ruiz Rosales. Nose: Fruit and citrus dominant: pear, pineapple, green apple and zest of lime. Slightly floral with background baking spices. Modestly robust aroma. Flavor: Nutty sweetness. Viscous and spicier than the aroma promised. Hint of bitters. A very easy sipper.
