Tastes

My wife bought this bottle thinking it was Tequila. Not sure if I woul have bought it myself. I poured some into a Glencarrin and was surprised how fresh and citrus it smelled. Within a few seconds a smoke developed. Remonded me of a peated scotch. Tried it straight up, great full body and easy drinking. Added a very small piece of ice to cool it. Totally enjoying this Mezcal.

If you buy this thinking you’lll experience classic tequila flavors you will be disappointed. If you want a tequila based spirit for cocktails that changes colors you will appreciate it. I initially tried it straight up with a little ice. Slightly sweet with orange and vanilla notes. This wasn’t a bad way to drink this product but had fun experimenting with it in cocktails. Visit their website, they have several cocktail recipes. My rating is based on the flavor and what it can do in a cocktail. I didn’t rate it on expecting it to be a great tequila.

Agave, caramel, oak, and lots of alcohol on the nose. Taste is very mild. Minimal alcohol, vanilla, oak, cherry, pepper, and caramel. The viscosity is more than you would think by just tasting it. Watch the side of the glass and admire how it slowly travels down the side of the glass.
