Tasting Notes
"The nose is quite aromatic with a and earthy and rich, herbal green scent (mix of mossy and fresh green herbs) with a moderate amount of rocky minerals and lime pith. It's fairly full on the palate with a lightly sweet mid-taste followed by pineapple fruit and more minerals. A bit oily which go down a bit easier. Finish leans bittersweet with a white pepper ending. Might not work for beginners, but fans of flavorful unaged tequilas will be pleased with this sipper."
