Tasting Notes
"The somewhat bitter and peppery flavors of the blanco carry through, but now tempered with tropical fruits, vanilla and sweeter spices. Light caramel, toasted sesame and oak emerge with further sipping. Ends spicy and earthy, with a hint of alcoholic burn. Perhaps not the greatest sipping reposado due to its bitterness, but a solid value for cocktails calling for deeper oak flavors."
