Tasting Notes
"The nose is bright and zesty, with notes of grapefruit and lime peels and a slight brininess, with accents of toasted sesame and vanilla. The citrus zest and maritime saltiness echo on the palate, backed up by burnt sugar/caramel sweetness and vegetal agave flavors. The flavor profile is not too sweet or rich, and drinks more like a mineral-forward reposado or a blanco. However, there is quite a bit of heat in the finish that quickly thins out the flavors on the palate. "
