Tasting Notes
"The nose provides ample roasted agave aromas with notes of grapefruit and lime zest and salty pretzels. The palate has flavors of toast spread with butter and honey, salty roasted peanuts, and balanced earthiness with a hint of portobello mushrooms. Though there is sweetness present, roasted agave flavors provide much of that flavor profile with a slight brininess to the finish. "
