Feb 28, 2023 Grand Mayan Blanco NOM 1173 This is an old bottle (8 or 10 yrs old) that I had previously tried but never rated. I'm going thru some stuff we have on the shelves that I've never rated. These are not expressions i typically drink. Immediately smell alcohol, then some agave, pepper and citrus. I'm not getting cake batter or fake vanilla on the nose like some others get. I honestly am juat getting a lot of alcohol. On the palate a get a little more sweetness than nose but it is not overly fake tasting. More pepper and some heat. Overall, it doesn't taste horrible but there's something unpleasant about it. Perhaps the high-pressure autoclave or triple distillation processing ???
