Tasting Notes
"Los Amantes Reposado is very subtle with the aromatics tiptoeing onto the senses. Faint notes of vanilla, lemon, licorice root, mustard seeds and raisins entice the nose. It displays a little less subtlety on the palate. There you'll find flavors full of ripe grilled peaches, vanilla, coffee, charred oak, cinnamon and allspice. There is a mild tannic bitterness on the back of the palate and overall reminiscent of a reposado tequila."
