#1137 Nose: Initial fruit and pepper, fade to caramel and potting soil aromas. There is a prominent (over the top) vanilla/honey nougat aroma that reminds me of a Big Hunk Candy bar. Flavor: The pepper element found in the aromas, has come back with a vengeance in tasting, accompanied by some brininess. There is cloying, thick sweetness that carries a very strange bitter note. I rarely say “take a pass” on a tequila, but you can skip this one.
