Tasting Notes
"The nose exhibits piquant aromas of grapefruit and lime peel, clove, and tropical fruit. The palate is rather mellow for an añejo style. Instead of rich and dessert-like, roasted and ever-so-slightly smoky agave flavors mingle with bright citrus and tropical fruit, sandalwood, clove, rosemary, roasted mushroom, and spicy black pepper. Only a hint of vanilla winds its way into a fresh and slightly earthy, almost savory finish. "
