Tasting Notes
"The nose is fresh, herbal and citrusy, with notes of fresh mint and dill, grapefruit peel, and smoked habanero pepper. Red bell pepper comes into the palate with spiced hot cocoa flavors (milk chocolate, chili pepper flakes, cinnamon). This medium-bodied sotol has a bright, lively finish with elements of sweet smoke.
