Nose: Nearly overripe dark fruit and caramelized agave, cloaked in a light dusting of nutmeg and cloves. Nice round aromas of caramel and vanilla - with a contrasting note of thyme. Also, there is an additional floral/fruit undertone. Flavor: Caramel, toffee, and vanilla with a hint of barrel oak woodiness. Oily, honey like mouth feel with a spicy kick. A slight, pleasant pepper burn on the tongue. Finish: A pleasant sipper. Appropriate for after dinner. Not stellar - but the Huichol (Wixártari) artwork is stunning!
