Very nice. Earthy. Peppery. Loads of agave. Excellent oily finish. A rando ounce at Antojo Tequila Bar in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
I liked it!

Nothing too awful here but too much medicinal flavor for me.

$23. 50/50 oven/autoclave cooked.
Aroma: smoky, cooked agave gets pushed out of the way by alcohol and nostril burn. Let it sit and it opens up to a citrus essential oil and lemongrass, too powerful but slightly interesting after wrestling with it.
First swallow lands in definite Robitussin territory with the agave a distant 2nd. Swishing it was tingly but the tingle gave rise to medicine. The finish is trying for cool/fresh/minty/effervescent but it can't shake the dominating medicine flavor. Feels like I drank cough medicine but the agave makes something of a comeback. I'm looking at this bottle like a puppy who just got face-swiped by the family cat.
El Caballo Estrella is a wonderful value brand. The anejo may be my favorite tequila in the $20 range. After trying that one, I knew that I needed to try the entire line. Here's the notes from the blanco.
