Tequila Freak
Aromas of cooked agave, caramel, vanilla, butter , and fruity. Very smooth for a reposado. Sweet cooked agave is very present, then got mineral, caramel, vanilla, and oak. A rich and buttery mouthfeel. Smooth and delicious!

A lively entrance of cooked agave and pastry notes (vanilla, caramel, butter). Almond nutty presence on the palate accompanied by the barrel spice magic of pinecone, leather and baking spices (nutmeg, clove, sprinkle of cinnamon) finishing with dried fruit notes that ride towards a anise and white peppery finish. Not as mineral as related NOM 1579 brands, which for a Reposado I enjoyed more.
Compared to the Blanco this is a sweet and balanced reposado. Very easy to drink, buttery and oily. The ageing really helped mellow the boldness of the Blanco, this is a good one. If the reposado is an indicator the XA is sure to be a very good one.
