It smells minty and earthy with a bit of sweet fruit. It is surprisingly smooth and oily with a menthol mintiness and some hints of prickly spice. The flavor beyond that has some bitter herbal flavor mixed with Earth. I guess it tastes aged, but it also tastes like alcohol. This tastes a bit like someone dropped some toasted wood in for 24 hours. This is frankly hard to drink because it tastes so much like jar-aged alcohol (in a bad way). There's some hints of cherry too, as if cherry wood was included in the jar. The complexity never comes out. The flavor is just not very good and also monotone. This tequila needs a lot of help.
