Cost

Tasting Notes
"On the nose, you’ll find earthy notes paired with stewed agave and green peppercorn, possibly some aromatic geranium leaf. On the palate, its earthier agave character may lack the creaminess of the Ultra Fino, but it more than holds its own with the help of the higher proof--which is discernible only as a foundation; there is no excess heat, just a deeper spice. Food pairing suggestion? Think duck with mole sauce."
