Tasting Notes
"If it’s true that we “taste with our eyes,” your palate will be in for a surprise with the crystal-clear Qui Tequila. On the nose, there’s plenty of agave, caramel and vanilla, with hints of grass. The smooth palate has notes of butterscotch, honey, oak and hints of smoke and a subtle vegetal character. The medium finish offers coffee, vanilla and a touch of oak."
