Aroma/Taste: The tequila opens with notes of cooked agave, followed by a hint of Parmesan cheese and a touch of yeast. The earthiness is reminiscent of damp soil, and the barrel aging contributes rich oak, cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove undertones. Finish: The finish is medium to medium-long, leaving a warm trail of baking spices and a kick of black pepper. A subtle bitterness lingers, adding complexity. Overall: This tequila strikes a harmonious balance between the sweetness of cooked agave and the gentle influence of light barrel aging. It’s perfect for sipping, especially by the firepit on cool evenings.
Smells excellent- like wet stone after a rain storm Clean taste & finish. This would be a great gateway tequila for a blance drinker getting into reposados Very versatile. Subtle hints of tropical fruit, sweet fruits, stone, dirt, and herbacious notes. Touches all corners of taste. I like this one
Eye- clear with a slight tint on yellow Nose-loads of cinnamon, upfront and pure agave sweetness with a slight bit of dark chocolate Taste- cooked agave, barrel spice, slight bit of orange peel, and light pepper. The bitterness from maybe the orange peal stays on the back end and last (subtle).
Clean agave with a subtle palate and soft finish. Tasted with AF 2024 Blind Repo. My lowest scoring tasting. This one did not sit with me.
Blind- Light on the color. Vegetal with some smoke and minerality on the nose. On the palate I get vegetal notes like bell pepper and some minerals.
