Nice green pepper nose. Hot in the mouth initially due to 99 proof. Quite long tongue buzzing/numbing finish. Sweetness that lingers after the numbing subsides.

For a high proof tequila, this is interesting. The nose is not really telling of what is to come. The flavor somehow manages to overpower the high proof, and the finish lingers pleasingly. This is a good choice as a sipper,
