The nose is agave and vanilla. I also get a hint of citrus. The agave flavor is still quite crisp, with a zesty citrus flavor. I get considerable sweetness, a drop of honey, vanilla, black pepper, and some smokiness. I am not much of a smoker, but I bet this would be a perfect accompaniment to a nice, full bodied cigar. The finish is lingering, dry, smokey, earthy, and well-oaked. I even get a little cocoa. This is a nicely balanced drink with distinct, but well melded flavors. Perhaps not perfect, but very proficiently crafted and hard to fault.
