Lucky me... I found this beer bottle sized treasure behind the gas station attendant. l NOM 1416. dated 03.12.14 Buttery roasted agave, sweet caramel and oak. Medium bodied, clings to the glass with slow long tears. Pleasantly sweet, butterscotch and light pepper. Oh, that tequila tingle, makes me smile and want another sip. Nice lingering finish with a good balance of mild agave and slightly bitter oak that's doing a lovely waltz for my senses. That's some tasty nectar.
Great for a mixer, the taste of cooked agave is present with a very subtle taste of vanilla. Works well as a “premium” mixer in blanco based drinks.
